It Was Like A Cold Water Indo! - Scotland, UK

  • The waves were close to perfection last week up on Scotland's North coast, and this particular break definitely bears resemblance to some of its tropical cousins - they don't call it the "Cold Water Nias" for nothing.
    And cold it was.. Even though the sun was shining on this particular day, 6mm hooded suits, boots, and gloves were essential to deal with the water temp hovering around 7°C.

      Lovely spot, great footage, looks like the cameraman used a drone.
      I wonder what this talk of 6mm suits is?
      Bit of trivia, my daddy made one of the first wetsuits, after returning from Barbados to the UK.
      He wanted to carry on swimming in the sea ! Unfortunately, I lost the trousers at Polzeath, in Cornwall as, I wore them, and they were too big.
      He was not that bothered about it!

Then they see what you can do and realize that east coast surfers are better then people from other places. For the most part all our surf is beach breaks that when it gets big you better be able to hold your breath and paddle for hours. Or it's barely rideable and you gotta make something out of nothing.

Like paddling around the impact zone? I had to learn how to that, I'm not saying I'm gonna show up at pipeline and blow minds but if I grew up there, it's all just getting comfortable and more fit to scale things up. My brother has been working out of Jersey some and he's all "Bro I didn't realize Jersey was so heavy"...yeah you get a hold down out there in your hood and booties never find the channel because there isnt one.. dodge the syringes (sorry 'stab at NJ there) line one up, commit and actually make one?!?! my bet is you can surf Escondido in anything short of full critical and have a blast.

      @johnswimcat Před rokem +2

      Hi Paul, if you're new to surfing a couple of tips 1) Get water fit if you aren't already. You can do this at your local swimming pool. 2) Start with a board that's long enough. If your board is too short you may look cool but you won't catch any waves! The size you need depends on your weight and paddling strength and fitness.
      Good luck. There's no feeling like sliding down a green face.
