February is definitely the primetime for Lanzarote with ground swells and sirocco (offshore). La Santa is the place to catch the thickest swells with El Quemao, La Isquierda and La Derecha. El Quemao holds big and gnarly barrels, La Isquierda is a slab kind of wave, nice but packed with locals and transplants (mostly transplants dickheads). La Derecha (or The Point) is the wave that holds the biggest swells, I've seen it breaking perfectly at 20-30 feet faces. There is Ghost Town, San Juan, and other spots, all lava reefs. Bring bigger boards or buy it from Seffon, local shaper. Your everyday board may be a 7'0 in February and they'll easily break given the power that those waves hold. If it is too big, go to the east coast in the Jameos del Agua area, loads of reefs to explore. Also try El Risco and La Graciosa.

Since when do people have a problem with erbber's asking people not to name spots?
and yea, like I'm going to listen you Big Ass Dave.
Yo, Penis, being a dick for the sake of being a dick will not win you friends. Yes I know, you don't care, because you're too cool to care. BTW, you're roots are showing, you'd better hit the salon soon.

Matter of principle (I know, surfers no longer posess any)
The ones on Canary Islands are far from obvious. You think Americans are the only ones that read the BB of the more well-known surf publications in the world? If you ruined it for one Canary Isle local then you f-ed up.

Damn straight, and that's exactly what I did in 1995 while you were still popping your zits in high school and beating off to your Slayer posters. I went there based on one photo I saw and the Surf Report, and I *****' scored. Some of the best waves in my life. Back when the locals there only surfed on Saturdays. Back when there were probably less 50 surfers in all of the islands. So yea bitch, I'm a little protective of them.

Peniscola: When I lived in FL, I lived closer to the Canaries than I did to the North Shore. So if I were to have gone to O'ahu I would have deserved waves because I traveled real far? Stupid.

Wrong suckass in 1995 I was on my 2nd year of living in Costa Rica. Still surfing spots with no one out
You can call your Momma now & cry to her I'm done with her.
& for naming spots I'm with everyone else. I just don't like you.

I tried to be indifferent to you but your constant bullsh!t here sucks. Constantly trying to pick little fights "because it's fun" is juvenile and idiotic. You've come out looking the worse for it everytime and yet you keep at it. There's no fvcking contest here, no quien en es mas macho. You don't know dick about me, you just don't like the fact that I've called you out on some of your bullsh!t you've posted. Fair enough. Don't care. Keep it up and I'm sure you'll be hanging out with srfdrnk and the other recent people that got banned for being assholles - oh yea, you've already been, and now you're looking to bannage #2. Knock yourself out. But do you really have enough spare time in the day to spend on here just for the sole purpose of being a dick?

Quote: anyone have the lowdown about this place in Feb. for waves? might be going for 9 days, with a 2 day layover in Amsterdamn....
hey geo, i'm on fuerteventura. if you come this way DEFINITELY let me know ahead of time. i can help you out with finding board rentals if you need... or other material as well, in case you're travelling light on the luggage.
if you're heading here or lanzarote, give me a heads up and we can meet up if you are interested. if you need a place to stay, also let me know. i have room at home and if not can guide you to some nice accomodation if you prefer your privacy. if you're headed to tenerife or the other eastern islands let me know as well and i will start researching stuff for you.... I PREFER PMs, eh?
as far as whoever posted this little gem:
"...its the Canary Islands if you travel that far then you deserve the get waves..."
please post directions to "your local" so i can remind you of just how far i've travelled to get there and get "my waves" when you start to give me lip about how many waves i'm taking off of you. your logic is simply astounding... let's leave it at that, shall we?

WOW now your talking about being a wave hog Come to my home break share some waves & have some fun. The rest of San Diego does
My statement was directed towards SmackBOI only because he is a little cry baby bitch
-------------------- I'm living between the shadows of my yesterday
you guys obviously don't know the place nor the thickness of waves there... talking about El Quemao or La Santa or any other spot in Lanzarote is just like talking about Pipe or Sunset or any other mainstream spot in oahu. The secret is only for people who's never been there and got their asses handled to them after trying to surf only 4' Quemao or 5' La derecha. what a loser lol. I don't worry about naming spots where 95% of kooks like you would never have the guts to surf. BTW, I can pick any wave I want in any of the before named spots because I know the people, the wave, have paid my dues and have enough skills to surf it when big (from october-april). So you sucker can have any scraps and your fair share of sea urchins any time. The place can take care of itself pretty well. enough said.

Hey DeeDee, how untying your panties for a bit. I didn't jump down your throat, didn't call you names, I just recommended not spouting off break names in a public forum. If you go on a regular basis, then you'll be the one to suffer the conquences of promoting the place (if any). As for me I may make it back there one day, but from what I hear it's been run over by assh@les like you for years.
