Doctors lawyers weekend warriors had the competition at the inlet. Surfed the peak with three other guys in a heat for what was the best least crowded I have ever had the pleasure of surfing Sebastian. Best swell I ever surfed. Got tubed more in the three days of the swell than I have in ten years.

Was that the storm that kept spinning and gave us around 3 weeks of waves?

Yes, Kyle "The Wave Giver"! I hadn't surfed Monster Hole like that in many, many, years.

We got 5 or 6 swells from Kyle. I remember it. Even after it went extra trop up in the North Atlantic it kicked back a swell. Long Live Kyle!

It was the gift that kept giving. I stayed at the Hilton on the beach and surfed right behind it. It did not matter, it seemed like it was perfect everywhere. Day after day.

That was my last DLWW. The first day was "typical" Florida surf. But, by the very early morning of the second day, , , , Holy Mother of God!! I got beachside before sun-up with my 10'0" Noserider and decided No-Way-Jose. Went to the Inlet watched the first couple of heats, went home got a shorter, more capable board, and spent the day at Monster Hole. And the next, and the next, it seemed to never end. Even when the swell had "faded" in the northern beaches, , , , Monster Hole was still full on.

You probably were there when I was in. The word epic gets thrown around a lot these days so the meaning gets diluted. That day was epic. The surf was perfect, not closed out, big and consistent.
