Extend that trip for a full 2 weeks, especially if it's your first time..... it's gonna take at least that long for your balls to drop (you'll be happy you did) and also to avoid a potential skunking..... if you were there this week, it's 15' and howling onshore all week. Not common, but it does happen, but this year has been pumping...... but if you are going for a short time, I agree with Mic, that it may be best to have boards ready (at least one solid one) to not waste any valuable surf time, hunting for the right stick..... I want to be surfing, not shopping..... if you feel like you ready to take one some big stuff once youre there, then go hunting for that big gun on the used rack. Surf Station actually stocks some solid travel boards (may have some used ones too)
