<p>I'm from central florida - Black's and Scripps Pier will be paradise compared to our long flat spells (currently 24 days and counting) and typically weak closeouts. Anyone know how many boards can comfortably fit in a dorm room (I'm in Revelle - in case dorm room sizes vary for each college)? Also, how far is campus from Windansea, Swami's, and some of the better points and reefs?</p>
<p>I'm gonna have the opposite problem as you. I live in Northern California, where we are constantly getting huge swells.</p>
<p>I am in Revelle also, but have not seen those dorms. I'm bringing two boards with me- a longboard and a short board, and that is probably pushing it. </p>
<p>I am pretty pumped about having Scripps Pier so close. When I was down there checking it out, I saw people climbing on the campus bus with their boards, and tons of people just walking down there from campus. </p>
<p>Does anyone know what mm peoples suits are down there? I have a 5-4-5 for my freezing ocean, but I don't really feel like roastin to death down there.</p>
<p>I've been told by several people that a 3/2 is fine all year and a 4/3 is "a little warm". I've also heard that it's skinnable in late July and early August, but only if it's 1 p.m., sunny, and glassy.</p>
<p>In Southern california you only need a long wet suit October-May, if that. The rest of the year a spring suit or just a rash gaurd will work fine. I live in Santa Barbara which is north of San Diego and I went out today in just a bathing suit.</p>
