im sitting in florida right now, out by my cousins pool. its 80 out bluebird. sitting with an iced tea and my goggles on (working on a base tan because im headed to utah in a few days) and im talking to my friends at home (boston area) and they have 1-2 feet of snow. and im envious. im in ideal weather for 99% of the population and yet id much rather be home.

You should be wakeskating/wakeboarding at OWC. Then go to Utah. That would be a sick trip.

I would do the same thing in your situation.
It is cheating, but what's anyone gonna do about it?. Exactly.

barrier islands/reefs ruin florida....
i was down in FT lauderdale over thanksgiving and there was a PERFECT ec sandbar about 2 laps off the shore.
shoulder to over head swells would have KILLED it.
but there were freaking footwaters ALL WEEK LONG.
it even stormed a few times. but still nothing
i miss zuma so badly right now...

i would be the same way, but go out and enjoy it, east coast is never wat it looks like, it might be alright now, but your going to utah which will be 100000 times better, and you have a whole season ahead of you, enjoy florida while you can

fucking lame bro, seriously whats the point of getting a goggle tan if you're gonna get it from florida?  i mean i guess its sorta bragging rights?  its sorta unavoidable here in utah so i see why you want to get it cuz it shows you ski a ton, but it just seems like your completely dick riding someone who actually gets it from skiing????

nah, heres how i thought of it. so i wanted to enjoy utah as much as i possibly could. it is inevitable that i will get a goggle tan///burn there and i didnt want it to be a burn because that would take away from my pleasure there. how can i avoid this? get a base tan to start off so that i dont burn my lower face out in utah. i dunno it made sense to me

well since your going to UTAH after FLORIDA then i dont think you have anything to be envious about. you can go enjoy the sun then go and ski. best of both worlds.

and the goggle tan in florida is just plain weird

sun screen will make it possible to avoid the pain of sun burn.... google tans are cool and all but mine usually get so bad that people start to comment that it looks like my face is dirty.
