And it's raining


Really giving me the s$#$s.
I can handle no swell but northerlies just takes all the fun out of surfing.
What to do

I'm thinking a longer board to paddle in flat water. Downwinders don't really excite so I'm thinking of something 12'6 or 14. Puch into the wind for a while then turn araound and come back.
Any ideas/suggestions/tips
