well, looks like we're still here, so we might as well keep the local surf reports going.

Yes this place used to be busy. I joined in 2009. I was 19 and on summer break. After surfing some closeout shorebreak south of 16th street I was walking back to my car when some guy in his 20s asked me with a smirk "I wonder how jettypark is looking right now?" Without realizing the insult I explained to him how it probably wasnt very good up there because of the conditions and swell direction but he kept insisting so I just walked away. It would still be several years until I actually surfed up there for the 1st time.

I joined this GREATNESS of a forum back in 2002 (had just made my comeback to surfing after slacking through my teenage years) in my mid 20's.. The forum has always been and i feel WILL ALWAYS BE super mega awesome high traffic or not! (When the site went down for a few months.. i literally HATED the internet without it!) lol

The heads up threads about "theirs a storm brewin", the "after session surf reports", the random surf photog's graciously sharing their images! I've asked advise on serious subject (surf related of course) and always received GREAT feedback from cfl dave and EVERYONE who felt that they could add pertinent input..

I work in software support so I'm ALWAYS on my PC bout 9-10 hours a day and THIS SURF FORUM STAYS open on my desktop all day cause I LOVE IT! #IHEART2NDLIGHT (YES THE SPOT 2ND LIGHT) #IHEART2NDLIGHTDOTCOM

From "Da People" i would like to just say THANK YOU! This forum is DOPE! don't ever kill it! (please?)

If the forum was a surfer it would ride a funshape and be the best surfer because it has the "biggest smile".

The clever people are on the nsr page. But they don't surf.

There in lies part of the problem.

If the forum was a surfer on a barrelling wave it could for sure have been deeper.

Yep. This is my first post in years. I still pop in to see what's going on every now and again. Definitely a big decline over the years.

I joined back in the early 2000's when I was in high school. It was pretty lively back then. Went to a few forum meet ups at tables. Met fellow forum members in JAX when I came to UNF. I still get on the forum from time to time but haven't posted in a while. Keep the forum stoke going!
