The following day after dad superzuri arrived (the 25th) we went to the coast. The forecast said that the conditions would be terrible but it turned out that I saw some semi-offshore wind for the first time here.
We started in Ecola State Park but we were not the first ones there
I showed him the typical viewRight after it was time for the first session. I felt a little bit clumsy but I managed to do some turns
After that we headed south to Short Sands. This beach is the most popular in the area so it's normally crowded but the conditions are always decent. As the waves were surfeable I didn't wait much for the second session
The wind started to swift shaping nice waves
As I saw some tinny tubes I tried to fit in some of them
After lunch we stopped in Oceanside. Of course no one was out but in the middle of the chaos there was an epic wave, every 100. So I had faith and went to the water
The pelicans were surfing over the waves
The current was so intense that I had to get out 4 times and walk back to the main spot
I had barrel hunger from the abstinence of the whole year
In the foamball
The lack of constant surfing leads to the late take offs...terrible!
Last wave of the day
As you may see you don't get bored in this coast. Actually there are waves every day. Yes, it's never flat. But it's a pity that it takes 2 hours by car, from Portland to get there.
That's all folks!
Hey superzuri!!

Diego! Oceanside doesn't look so bad if you don't mind battling the current. Nice shots man! Can't wait to get some tubos soon. My friends and I are taking a trip up the Canada Coast on the 20th. Hope you're enjoying Portland!
