The best bar of our coast trip was all the coastie lingo we picked up along the way:

dangle splash
dangle pop
"the ditch"
going down the road

Got anything to add?

Glad you mentioned it
Heard a good one the other day
"Assisted living"
I think that's best one I have ever heard
surfers have nothing better to do while sitting there waiting

The "Landlord" aka sharks; probably great whites around here,

and the new name for Siletz Bay when your dunk. . .It's Schlitz Bay

Heres a few randoms....

HUCKSTERS -- Show offs hucking off waves instead of surfing them.

TAGGED...MAYTAGGED ...rolled in the surf.

STACKED --casing the wave behind the wave you jump.

STUNTERS - All about being a daredevil with zero style....like a gay colored stunt kite.

PK's - Penis kit -- lifted 4x4 trucks with blinged out rims. (??)

STALKERS - Dudes driving down the beach in their PK's watching my wife ride.

tiny penis here: watching tammie kiteboard.

"SUNSET JIM" the mayor of sunset beach. he buggies the dunes, he watches your car, he gives upwind rides, he listens to grateful dead.

"GORGEYS" group of kiteboarders that drive onto the HUGE beach in vans and block eachothers cars/traffic by parking on top of each other. also known to kiteboard within 4 meters of eachother while leaving the other 15 miles of waves vacant. work together with them and you may have upwind shuttles going all day long.

HAAAA

Yeah...the van is not a penis kit.
It's a Pornstar kit!
ha

But you are exempt of redneck PK status because you pull a trailer full of kites, boards and buggys and you don't have a
"If it's brown it's down- if it flies it dies" sticker on the window.

A couple more.

GABESVAN - if you see it. It's probably windy. Impossible to miss as it looks like a giant semi coming down the beach at a distance. Just a bit smaller than the Iredale boatwreck and able to pull you out if you are stuck in the sand.

SOFT SECTIONS - Soft sand sections at high tide where 2 wheelers get stuck---- and Gabesvan has to pull you out.

POACHERS ---- Hillbillies with no respect for nature. The PK driving pricks who go out to Fort Stevens and poach (illegally shoot) elk ...even on sunset beach. Identification marks may include the sticker stated above or a white sticker of an elks head or antlers on the back window.

GORGEYS---aka---the GORGE-OUS people- TANNERS - Social types who congregate and tend to huddle for safety in cars and on the water. Typically unfamiliar with wide open spaces and solo riding.
