We all have friends from the Island who live in California, Hawaii, the Outer Banks, and a bunch of other places where the surf is better than here. Or maybe Colorado? It’s a familiar story. They learn to surf in New Jersey, fall in love with it, and then travel to find better waves.

During one of those trips they find that the waves are more consistent, warmer, bigger, etc. You really can’t blame them. They come back to less-consistent, cold, small waves, and they decide to move away.
