Nah, that's the fancy part. The Redneck Riviera is up northwest where it's basically Alabama. ??

They check you for guns when you show up... And if you don't have one they give you one.

So True. Most of us pack while winging. ??

Shlogger, I'm in SoCal but from the South. I promise we will wing (and laugh) together in the next year. Dying to come ride down there lol.

St Andrews Inlet really is the "basically Alabama" part of Florida.
...

Shh. Don't tell anyone... Only EVERYONE in Florida knows about it.

Oh Seppo, now all of Australia knows. Hahaha

Ah crap. The word is out.

Florida surfers have called 20 of the last 2 good swells there.

The entire state goes to that "secret spot" for hurricane swells.. and they don't score. Super windy, super chop, wrong swell direction, etc, etc.

But when it's golden it is golden.

I have scored St Andrews State Park on a hurricane swell. Was amazing. Challenging shifty throwing D-bah bowls. But I have never seen that infamous, far-better "secret spot" a few hundred yards away properly doing it's thing.

The life of a Florida surfer ain't easy. And on that coast, you never leave surf in front of you to look for surf... Because the swell is usually shrinking by the minute.

But when that coast is it's on, it's ON.

Shlogger, tomorrow the wind is looking super solid for you, if you have enough neoprene!

a beautiful light air day.

That's a real dreamy sesh awesome and the sound track makes it

I'd love to try St Andrews at some point. Looks like I could handle it on a mellow day (very limited ocean riding experience).

This definitely doesn't qualify as Riviera, but it is FL, and it is winging from an RV park (or Caravan park as they say down under) on the Indian River, so that should at least qualify as red neck. A couple a manatee induced faceplants and a narrow channel to squeeze into which livened up some otherwise mundane (sloppy out of practice from endless injuries) flat water winging and kitefoiling

Dspace those little islands on the Indian River look familiar They are ideal for some butter smooth conditions and practicing transitions.

Save the Manatee!!

You would think given their size and a water depth of only 1 to 2 meter, I'd be able to spot them and avoid a
collision, but no way. Not even a shadow visible with the murkiness of the water. I'm assuming a foil hit is a minor bump compared to a prop strike

Of course i was referring to the bumper sticker we see on cars. ;-).
