Pismo right now. Wind is on. It's cold. One foot closeouts in the shorebreak. 30 people out. Sitting in my car, watching for a minute on the way home from work, some @sshole outside my window waiting for the parking spot. Ain't gonna happen guy. Why do you want it anyways?

Edit: 40. There are now 40 people out. Still not one wave has come through.

We're up to 50. I've seen fewer people in videos of Waikiki, and more waves in videos of the NFL in the 1980s.

Great waves that drive you absolutely nuts because they blow out so farkn' early - and the over agro Brazilian sweet and delicious bag of pickles.
Not to mention my asthma/apnia going nuts because of all the burning garbage.

Doesn't Pismo fall into "The shitty beachbreak down the street doesn't count" part of the OP's rules?

I'd probably go with both County Line and Staircase as places I have no desire to and likely never surf again in my lifetime.
Probably. It is a well known name but because of its shlttiness.

I got Hermosa so good for a week straight.

Hated? I don't know, County Line, for every single reason there is.
I am a surfer of marginal abilities but the two times I surfed at County Line I am by far the best surfer out there. Kookville.

Every wave from the southern border of Solana Beach to the north end of Leucadia, basically North County San Diego. :) One way to look at it, one less person out there. Enjoy.

#1 - Wind an SEE. I surf it about two times a year and that's enough for me. Good place to be Scene. Though that inside section is quite the lip to hit. Fark the wavepools.

Back when I was learning to surf (stand-up at least), I think I was 3-4 weeks in and one of the best surfers out in the water at CL. Just like Sunslop, it's a good honeypot to keep people from going where it is actually good.

Point can occasionally be good but mostly a burger. The left off the back of the point can get pretty good (if not far better) if kelp isn't too thick. Beachbreak very hit or miss but been mornings I had it absolutely empty with overhead A-frame peaks right in the middle as good as waves get. But every time that happens, there are over 100 times you don't even slow below 55 as you drive by.

Oh and Neptune's Net is the most overrated eating establishment in the history of food.

I agree, the Net is not good food.

Here's an excerpt from my Yelp review
You don't come here to have a nice meal, you come here for atmosphere, fried food, and maybe some beers. The 22oz collection is very well stocked, It's almost worth the drive just to check the selection. An item of note is the Beer Float, vanilla ice cream atop a mug of Belching Beaver Peanut Butter Milk Stout, yummy!
