nothing special - it RARELY goes off as in the pix. a few local jackoffs spoil the whole vibe for everyone, and the joke is they're all fat, middle aged and hostile. get a job gramps.

Venice Surf Is For The Birds - The waves here are closed out, not to mention the poluted water, and transients that make the whole scene ghetto. Surfers in Venice, the whole idea of a surf scene in Venice makes me laugh. The pictures posted for Venice are few and far between. I feel for the locals, you guys got it bad if you consider Venice your spot. Having a few good days a year at my home break would'nt satisfy me.
