Now it's "sham."
Clowns like this guy wouldn’t even be able to paddle their local spots back in the day unless they wanted a beating.
Usually it was the threat of violence. First you get sounded: "Hey, where are you from?" Followed by, "Maybe you ought to sit on the inside, sets are for locals only." Then comes, "Not enough waves today, maybe you paddle in and go check your car." Finally, "Didn't we tell you to leave? We weren't asking. Beat it, and don't let us see you here again or else we kick your ass!"
Right. But it has to be backed up with actually following through, IE people getting punched out, tires slashed, windows broken etc. Empty threats don’t pack the same punch (see what I did there).
Really? I think I'm a little older than you and from the same general area and never got any treatment growing up. Once we thought there was someone throwing rocks at us, but then a half hour later, when we were in the lineup, a bug chunk of cliff collapsed right where we had been standing.
Among other things, they sold the Golden Door Spa in Escondido for $28,000,000 in 1998.
Are they involved with that posh retreat across the border by Tecate? He's always posting IG stories visiting gramps down there.
could be a timing thing...some of this was at the public left, most of it was at the less public left..and lots and lots of that vibe at the spots around the corner that face south. This was the late 80s early 90's. No hassle at the beaches thoughReally? I think I'm a little older than you and from the same general area and never got any treatment growing up.

The only time I got vibed was much later after I'd been out of the area for a long time and when I went back a new crew had ensconced itself at my local. Who the fuk calls themselves the "dirty underwear gang" anyways???
I was told, once, "Hold onto your board!" by an elder after I ditched getting caught inside but only once. I learned my lesson.
