One good wave

Post by Man O' War »

...How hard could it be? First wave I paddled into- I pearled so bad, I kissed the reef. Wonderful... second wave- dorky little shoulder, my friends are beginning to wonder. Third wave. Drop in, grab rail, and proceed to get SLOTTED OUT OF MY MIND! Hooked. Once I got the take off figured out, and where to sit on my board, I was having a blast. Getting barrels on 3 foot waves- so far back that I never thought I was coming out. So, I started dabbling a little- started looking around on the internet, discovered that there is a surprising amount of info out there... Being the compulsive human that I am- I had to make one.

The pics of his eps work are beautiful. Bruce & Bud, check these out.

Jon, are you going to help welcome this SC guy into the fold?

So, Dr S... the skeletons are coming out of the closet.
Then you're going to need this.
Focus on the 4 dots, count to 20, close your eyes and watch.

Man O War: That's sick. Thanks. I saw it for sure. It took about 5 seconds with them closed. But sure as heck, there it was.
