Ok, so I drove down to the Outer Banks on Saturday. Hoping to shoot the Volcom contest, then Head down to the Lighthouse for the first day of the ESA Easterns. I figured it was a bust when I pulled up at 1st street and Ryan Kingsbury was the only person there. Actually there was on other guy who was just leaving. Surf sucked, Contest was a wash. I met up with John Barnes down in Nags head where there was a little wave, but nothing spectacular so I headed down to Hatteras. Seeing no cars lining the road anywhere, I figured I was S.O.L. , until I pulled into Rodanthe with cars lining the side of the road. I was more than a little suspect that this spot could be that much better than anywhere else. After watching it for a while I decided to shoot some photos. Nothing spectacular, it was probably nothing more than stomach high with the occasional bigger set wave. I shot for a while then headed back to Nags head to get some food and hang out.
I’ll have the photos from the 22nd posted sometime tonight, I’m not even going to bother heading to the Lighthouse this morning, I’m just going to go back to VB and get some stuff done, including getting the rental house booked for Hawaii!!!
In the meantime, here’s a shot of the Wright (no relation) Brothers Memorial yesterday afternoon.
