Where The Real Waves Were


If you asked the average kook, you'd come away with the impression that the only place that waves ever break in Northeast Ohio is The Cove.

At least it seems like that, judging from the inordinate number of boards in the water surfing crappy waves all day at Edgewater.

So where were the real waves?

The Janitor didn't know. . .

The String Monkey didn't know. . .

It seems even Marcos didn't know.

Why are these men laughing?

Because they did know.

So instead of patting yourself on the back and thinking you got yourself a good day of surf, consider the possibility that waves break elsewhere, even on a North, and when you see the big boys pack-up their boards and drive away when you think there's still surf, they probably aren't going home to take a nap.

The Clean-up Crew


It shouldn't be, but it happens. Sometimes, even though you think you got them all - even after an Epic Day like yesterday's Epic Sunday - a few waves slip through the cracks, and are still waiting to be ridden the next morning.

That's a job for the Clean-up Crew, Marcus, Stevie, and Joel, who while you were still sleeping, or on your way to work this morning, made sure that no wave was left behind.

Yeah, Thursday


Bet you didn't see that coming. Bet you didn't even know you missed it. But Marcos and Ben are a little savvier than your average Lake Surfers, and for a couple hours, early Thursday morning some tasty waves were to be had.

The Sewer Pipe, of course, had it covered for you.
