	You haven't been to New Jersey lately, have you?  Surfing is VERY popular
along the shore here, and there have been several National championships
contested here, including 2004...  It might not be the monster waves of the
Banzai Pipeline but there are consistent, good-sized waves to be had at
many beaches.  There's also a bunch of surfing websites here...  There's
also some very good SK clubs here as well but they seem to keep a lower
profile.
