Saltburn - It makes me laugh when people slag of breaks, whats wrong with Saltburn, like anywhere it can have classic days and poor days. When you live inland you've just got to put the water time in and sooner or later you'll get a classic day. Nick and Gary are top blokes and i havent got a bad word to say for them. As for the surf check its the most accurate for the coast and he tells you what you want to here, unlike big g's who goes of about his holidays and other rubbish before getting to an inaccurate surf check. As for Cayton Bay, through the week its deserted and you dont want to be in that surf shop alone with the dragon that owns it, i'd rather surf one foot slop at south bay than give her my money.

Wahooooo!!!! Visit the new saltburnsurf.co.uk - Alright guys, just dropping a message to say the new website is now up and running: visit it at http://www.saltburnsurf.co.uk, hope you enjoy. Dave, I think that last comment about saltburn surf check was a bit out of order, we've always had and always will have a solid relationship with the lads at tynemouth and really there was no need for that comment, although i bet you have or you will ring the surf check again. Saltburn Surf check is undoubtedly one of the most accurate reports for this coastline in the country.Anyway sorry about that, and on a lighter note we look forward to seeing you all in the forum at saltburnsurf.co.ukp.s remember to check the gallery out!

You are dreaming.............. - I've read some ridiculous headlines on this website but looking like SoCal has got to take the cake. Pom dreaming.
