Asher and Oliver Kurtz enjoy two north swells in the OBX
The East Coast is usually supposed to be good during the fall. So far we have only really had three tropical swells and they were fun but nothing amazing. Florida only got two of those swells and after being home for over two weeks and only surfing once I was getting the itch. The forecast reports started claiming that there was going to be a good size north swell with possible good winds in the outer banks of north carolina. I decided to charge up there and see if i could get lucky and get some fun solid waves. Oliver Kurtz was in cali and i told him that i was heading up there. He hasn't ever experienced a good swell there before so he got a ticket and met me there. We ended getting great waves for five days straight. From big thick barrels to super clean fun barrels. It was definitely hard to get them cause of the crazy drift but when you got one it was amazing. After five days of nonstop paddling and running up the beach my body is pretty beat up but it's a good feeling knowing that I surfed my brains out. — Asher
