"Yesterday was probably one of the best days in Jersey, at least that I can remember," says Rob Kelly. "There was so much swell in the water that it took some time for the ocean to figure itself out. The wind was forecast to go offshore at some point during the day so we anxiously waited to see if it would turn on.



"Sure enough, right around lunch time, it looked like someone just flipped a switch and it went from victory at sea to A+ Jersey almost instantly. We (Hammer, Gleason, Gesler, etc.) couldn't get our gear on fast enough, paddled out, and then spent the rest of the day trading tubes and laughing at each other tripping on how good it was.



"It's pretty rare to get a day that size and clean here in NJ so we were just going on every wave we could catch. That left popped up and it didn't look as perfect as most of the waves out there but I figured it would be a good vision if nothing else. It ended up being a pretty wide one and all I had to do was just stand there and go straight. Definitely a vision I'll keep in the memory bank along with some of other waves I caught and watched everyone else catch out there."
