If there is no name given, and nobody says anything about the location then its all good, but the people who are most upset about it are the ones who named it...shoot yourself in the foot much?
I do understand that it's a sensitive subject, but its not like this same spot isn't named specifically in Surf and Art books that are in circulation by the hundreds of thousands all over the world, as well as in publications like the Surfer's Journal and Surfer Magazine at least a couple times a year with MORE information on access than was given here.
sorry if I offended anyone, it's MY blog about MY life and i had a blast. I get the point so I took the photos down and apologize, but next time a less emotional and possibly more mature response or request for the photos' removal would be the way to go.
Now everyone knows how good Ledbetter can get..........

Jeezuz , really? did you have to post those? Think it over a bit before you hit that button. I know it's not much of a secret these days , but you don't have to wave a flag.
no name or location was given, or will be given to anyone who asks. i know its a sensitive thing but i had the time of my life and its my blog so i wanted to share...sorry if i offended anyone i'll take a few off, and it sure isn't a secret at all with close to 40 people out all day long.
There's a reason why people are going to be kind of pissed off about it. You might want to think about it..
Even the Japanese guy was pissed. I can translate....
American monkey spanker, begin making Pearl Harbor attack on you. Destroyed camera making magic automobile. Buy more Sony.
Jeffe for the win!
thanks for taking it down. now it's a surfing win and not a ryan win.
i didn't take it down for you.
i took it down for KP and the couple of people that i actually respect.
Thanks for taking it down for me, Ryan.
o you mean the other people who think you are a kook? well they probably dont, but i do... dont you have some boards to shape or some clothes to sell?
Sorry you have to put up with this sort of crap Ryan. Anyone with a costco surfboard around SB knows the name of that place.BFD.
The pics were great. Thanks for sharing your adventure...and your surf craft. Just don't post Pictures of Leds ever again, please.
Come by my shop sometime esteban, if you've got real problems with me then come talk, my doors are open all day long and if you know as much about me as you think you do, then you know where to find me.
classic!
sounds pretty tough to me. not soul bro at all...
have mike be the ref and we'll throw down in your shop. each of us standing on a rack with sanders in our hands. two men enter, one man leaves. you'll have home court and size, of course, but being that i'm prone to violence, the odds will be even. if you win, i'll buy a board from you and surf straight the whole winter. if i win, you stop posting pictures of any waves except rincon, sand bar, and anywhere south of ventura. Deal?
Stef,
This is the crap that anyone should put up with regardless of the spot. Yes, everyone knows the spot, and yes, everyone has probably seen it and even surfed it, but that doesn't make it right to put it out even further in the open. Some things are better left unsaid. I know I'm a hypocrite for writing this, but that's the way it is. I don't have a stake to any of spots in question whatsoever, and I don't claim to. I just know if you peeped over the fence and took pictures of me sunbathing in my pink thong and posted them online I'd be pretty bummed.
Thanks for your 2 cents Nigel.
What do I know, I only surf Leds on shitty days on my 10" Costco Wavestorm SUP, and that makes me a kook,right? That "salad dressing" named spot is the worst kept secret in CA. It's just "much ado about nothing" to get all fired up about some pics without a single mention of name and location of the spot...but I get your point. By the way, That part with pictures of you sunbathing in a pink thong is kinda spooky. I understand you would be bummed about it.
10"? that's short. is it a costco handplane? maybe the daily bread guy sold out so he spring for some hair plugs....things that make you go hmmmm
I wouldn't recognize a handplane if I saw one. I'm a kook, what do I know. My Costco board is a custom 10'0"...sorry for the typo.
Don't you have better things to do, like beeing jealous of other persons popularity, the boards they shape and the T-Shirts they sell? Or maybe using your blog to actually NAME pics of surf spots other bloggers intentionally forgot to name and get all pissed off about it?
I know we are all kooks...but your arguments are somehow inconsistent.
By the way you only have 9 readers now...I just quit.
dear stef-
we are sorry that you feel that way. customer service is a high priority to us. oh wait, actually we dont give a fuck about how many readers we have. besides i'm not a kook. im actually a very competent surfer in anyone's book. think of it this way: remember how bush said to fight the terrorists there so we dont have to fight them here? thats we are doing. for now, the kooks are all here, so we win. please dont be an unreasonable woman, stef. it is way more annoying then being a kook.
XOXOXo
Ouch, I never said you are a Kook...I am a kook...Esteban Slater.
Once again you proved 3 things I thought about you while reading your blog.
1 - You have no capacity to find suitable arguments;
2 - You are a REDNECK;
3 - You call me "dear" and I am man...that makes you somehow gay.
Over and out and tons of kisses.
Your "Dear Stef"
