OKI SURF - I was stationed in Okinawa for 7 years and had some great surf sessions with Bob and the 15th TRS Crew, we took the Ferry out to the outer islands and caught some epic sessions. Saturday morning we would load up the van and head to Ieki Island and surf until we could barely lift our arms. Long paddle out but well worth it. I'm on the Gulf Coast now and wish we had the quality and consistency of the waves in Oki.

Consistency - I am thinking of taking a job in Okinawa. I live in San Diego at the moment where the surf is generally fairly consistent. How consistent is the surf in Okinawa? Are we talking a few good swells a month, or a few good swells a year? Is there an off season?
