I've been surfing large waves lately



It doesn't take much. To keep the stoke alive becomes a battle like none other. When you've been there. When you've walked away unscathed, clean and humbled in the best way possible. Riding liquid mountains like you have never seen before. Our day will come as it all ways does. To deal with the waiting between sets, between storm fronts, sunrises, sunsets, moon phases, years, decades, a hundred years, as much of a part of surfing as waiting for snow is for the white wave. Travel ponders and hopes of arcaine barrels of pure sunlit glory plague the mind. The most pure circuit charging the soul in the most indescribeable way. Still we remain Hungry. Like an animal of its own kind; Of it's own breed. A seperate extension of the mainstream. We are the water walkers, the storm riders.
        My only vice has been music. It has consumed me. Music and arbory. Day in day out. I have a climb and I make music. Waves come in all shapes and sizes. I like the ones made of salt water the best. It's all I crave. 6ft @ 16 seconds. For 2 weeks straight. Light variable winds 3-5kts. Just enough swell and wind variation so I can take 2 weeks from work to explore every nook and cranny that the oh so promising New England coastline has to offer. Swell and a long sought after boat trip. I'm ready Nature. Are you? I'll be waiting.....

Hang in there.


As flat as the Ocean has been and as mediocre as a season that it has been there are so many waves to ride.

Vibration

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Vibrations)
Jump to: navigation, search
Vibration is a mechanical phenomenon whereby oscillations occur about an equilibrium point. The oscillations may be periodic such as the motion of a pendulum or random such as the movement of a tire on a gravel road.
Vibration is occasionally "desirable". For example the motion of a tuning fork, the reed in a woodwind instrument or harmonica, or the cone of a loudspeaker is desirable vibration, necessary for the correct functioning of the various devices.
More often, vibration is undesirable, wasting energy and creating unwanted soundnoise. For example, the vibrational motions of engines, electric motors, or any mechanical device in operation are typically unwanted. Such vibrations can be caused by imbalances in the rotating parts, uneven friction, the meshing of gear teeth, etc. Careful designs usually minimize unwanted vibrations.
The study of sound and vibration are closely related. Sound, or "pressure waves", are generated by vibrating structures (e.g. vocal cords); these pressure waves can also induce the vibration of structures (e.g. ear drum). Hence, when trying to reduce noise it is often a problem in trying to reduce vibration.

Losing my marbles.....

It's ok. Bear with it. Overhead swell will come eventually. Until then ride the concrete wave or grab your favorite off-road beach cart and tackle some gnarly terrain! Tiverton Skatepark is epic aside from the prominent risk of slaming into little kids. Going a bit loony. Last decent session was over 4 weeks ago. Feels like hurricane time.
