^check out what it was like down here during hurricane frances. i dont know if i shared my surfing story here, but the waves were HUGE, biggest i ever seen down here. i actually put my board down and just swam after my friend broke her board, the waves were a little too much for my level of surfing and boards were breaking left and right out there, it was serious! i did ride some, but after i got tossed a couple times i took it easy.

those waves look so nice, wasn't to huge though. a few waves had some crazy faces but damn those look mad fun. The biggest i've ever been out was right before one hurriance it was like 12-15 ft faces and it was like 40mph winds blowing downshore along the beach. It was so dumpy, I remember this one wave I dropped in on, 1 out of 2 waves I caught) and it was an air drop down like 5-6 ft then it pitched right over my head and I was in the deepest barallel of my life. That is the only time I can honestly say I PISSED in my shorts.
