The surf in the North East
"It’s harsh. But once you’re actually out surfing, it’s not too bad"
It’s harsh. But once you’re actually out surfing, it’s not too bad. The worse thing is getting changed- putting the wetsuit on and taking the wetsuit off afterwards in the cold weather, freezing cold feet, standing in snow with bare feet.
Interviewer: And how do the conditions compare?
Quite often it’s better in winter - the waves have got a lot more power, usually quite a bit bigger. You can get sort of decent swells in the summer as well.
