Some local crews are legit, some are kooky.

B-) guys zik german accent made what he said sound like an SS officer barking at some Hebrews. Local Canarian accent is smooth as silk, musical as well.

Are there lots of German (and British) "locals" in your area?
I think San Meeghell is one of the most hilarious.
It's like the Swami's gong show got scrappy and was en español.
K. Meza runs that sh!t like it's he personal fiefdom and craps on all the other locals and blow-ins.
There is one particular lone wolf bodyboarder that shouts stuff and throws rocks. He once dropped in on me at the end of a wave right before I pulled out just for the vibes.

generally the place with the most out of state transplant longboarders trying to be stylish has the most kooky "locals"
anyone who moves within 10 miles of the spot thinks theyre locals. even people that drive 20 miles there for 2 years consider themselves locals.

That one seems a case of so many locals no one knows whose a local.
The fights between locals are the best.
Lots of funny stuff witnessed there.
Favorite moment: a punch to the back of the head on a drop-in, followed by an attempted drowning, followed by a "Bro, he's cool back off he's cool!"
A buddy and I checked Hags once. I swear some lady walking a mini-mutt with a gaudily bedazzled collar stink-eyed the holy hell out of us on the drive up. In the Malaga Cove lot some guy had a conversation with two guys in the water about how me, my buddy, two other dudes checking it, and a couple other people surfing wouldn't be catching any waves there that day. It was chest high, shitty looking, and real inconsistent. I am guessing tide problems.
I was at a beachbreak in Central California, checking it. It's not in Santa Cruz county but 2/3 the cars in the lot had multiple Santa Cruz stickers. Beautiful clean surf. The usual everyone-has-a-slow-surly-stare-for-everyone-else CenCal. I saw a few really hot girls and kind of kooky dudes leaving, the dudes had the act down but the girls tried to break the ice smile/hi and cut the tension, like they could sense the "threat of low-level violence" Finnegan refers in Barbarian Days, and the few mini-crews checking it just barely nodded, slow surly stare. I unleashed the retarded OMG UR HAWT East Coast doofus grin. Probably slobbered a bit.
My last day up there before driving back to LA on a weekday morning I was leaving the place I was staying and someone driving by in a white van saw me putting my boardbag in the trunk and threw a "beat it" out the window on the drive by.
The Treasure Coast is an oddly localized place. Vibier than neighboring Brevard or the Palm Beaches. Fort Pierce Inlet has been a shitshow for decades, Monster Hole has become a shitshow. The reefs, I understand the need for order no doubt. But the shorebreaks/beachbreaks....95% of the days it's "good" there are waves going unridden left and right, very, very few people from the adjacent zones know there's a "spot" there, and fewer bother even when it's on. But people will purposely roast the sh!t out of other people unprovoked, and there's a frequency/brazen-ness to it you'd never see at a place like Sebastian, without the absolute main peak zoo you see at a place like Juno where sh!t like that is a fact of life.
At La Isla one day in Punta Hermosa, pulled my wetsuit down a little, and took a strolling whizz from S to S on the SOLO LOCALES graffiti before paddling out.
