    I’m a sock nerd –

    All my socks are Bridgedale & Icebreaker (merino or not, who cares), nothing else.

    The best sock drawer I know. :P

    +1 too tall – prevailing condition SW winds – offshore!

    The annual wind rose for Boulmer is typical of open, level locations across the region, with a prevailing south-westerly wind direction through the year.

    Favourable wind comes at the cost of swell – Small NE fetch. On its day NE coast is great.

    Creg as you say we have smart breaks. Neat yorkshire point breaks. we need to keep them quiet. :wink:

    Mini mal, kind of half longboard (front) and half short board (tail end). Easy paddle on to the wave, but when surfing off your back foot it’ll surf more a short board. Best of both, IMO.

    It will be easier to get out back, than a mal = more time surfing.

    As Creg said – the guys at Scarborough will put you right.

    Hope you get what you need

    Ditto, most other posts. Its not worth driving 2hrs+ just for an hour and half ride

    Its good local blast. If you have a long drive you might as well make a w/e of it in the dales.

    Hire a board for the day, see how you get on.

    Agree with scottidog.

    If you enjoy it (4), the buy a mini-mal and suit and get out. Maybe, tidy it all up with a few lessons later on in the year when the NE (Teeside) gets the swell. Make a w/e of it and head to scarborough.

    Mini-mals seem to sell on the 2nd market, if you don’t enjoy it.

    enjoy!

    Havana is awesome, if you stay in the right place
    Trinidad – ace
    Vinales – ace

    whole country is great – its important not to go “all inclusive” you’ll see fvc all.

    No time for the all inclusive/coach trip ppl.

    we stayed in particulares and hung out with cubans. saw the touristy bits + got to see local stuff.

    the rum is good but the food, so so.

    if you get there have a good one

    My first time. Really enjoyed it and would go again.

    Course was ok. Maybe a bit too much climbing in the second loop, but it was alright. Head down & pedal, right? ?Then hammer the descents.

    Good camping and facilities, mrs eGn appreciates that :D
