Does anyone feel like wave pools are starting to replace the experience of ocean surfing? For a while there, it was a novelty, but now it’s becoming a legitimate option when the waves don’t line up. Wave pools never go flat. Just pay the fee and it’s all the fun you can handle. Maybe it’s not “real,” but no shame in paying for it. (Are we still talking about surfing?)

Once upon a time in New Jersey, we used to say that the surf was too small.
