Hey Matt ,I agree with the spoon comment,that was Preston, a really good photograher I met at WEDGE this year. He started shooting alot fromthe water said he was interested in kb'ing. Next thing I know he said he bought a spoon. And it's not for show he is learning kneeboarding the old school way. Keep it up Preston.

Tahiti_Nui,

Great slideshow!!! :D

Thanx for taking the time to put it together.

It really captured the 'feel' of the day.

What a great group of friends...

Loved the tunes also... Who is it?

Well, first we will be "gathering" with Fossilman on Maui, and any other kneelos who care to join us. :wink:

Looking at the calendar for this August, perhaps August 4th.
I'll just throw that date out, and see what kind of response arrises.

Anyone interested in gathering somewhere between RJ's and just south of HB pier, let me know...Let's pick a spot and decend upon it.
