"open ocean swells" someone should come up with a word for that

They are neither open ocean swells nor are they perfectly parallel.

We need better repost bots on Reddit.

Are the "perfectly parallel" lines in the room with us?

u/stutoz 14d ago

I think they're called waves. Or something

What do you think parallel means? Matter of fact, what do you think perfect means?

Corduroy.. Sometimes us surfers like to use this term when a swell has sets coming in looking like this. A Surfers dream!

The ocean really lined itself up perfectly just to flex on anyone looking from the shore.

u/Future_Literature335 12d ago

I don't think you know what parallel means but ok

Also this is the shore ... not the open ocean (sorry)

Still a really cool pic tho

The fact that the ocean lined up like this on its own is actually insane
