mush buggers - I paddled out for some fun looking Emily swell at ponce and wow! What a mushy wave. The way the waves peak up on the sandbar gets you all excited then next thing you know you are paddling your ass off to catch a shoulder high wave and pumping your ass off all the way down the line. Props for the long rights though. But the waves in florida are powerless. As for the locals most where cool but the teenagers need to be taught some respect before they get choked out. Every teenager in the water thinks they are going to be Kelly Slater one day when the reality is they will be waiting on me at the local restaurant their whole life which is fine but they need to be brought back down to earth.

ponce - i live in the daytona area and i love ponce inlet, however there are some really good waves elsewhere. on really big northern swells the pier is much better than ponce. even up the beach towards wilbur can be really fun on a big swell. if you don't mind the drive new symrnia is almost always a safe bet for good consistent waves. i love ponce but its not like its that much better than everywhere else. there are days where it is the only place breaking, but i would not even begin to say that it produce that much of a better wave than everywhere else. ohh yea and the only reason that those guys who colided with eachother on a wave were not swinging fists was because they are good friends.
