That coverage was horrible. Grainy video and the announcers had no idea who was who. I watched for 30 minutes and they were calling a wave for Kelly Slater when everybody watching on tv could see the guy was not Slater. After a few minutes, they finally realized it was not him. Found out later...

This pic was from last week. The nose of my board is resting on my car bumper. Short walk

I was out at the north end of Camp Pendleton and got clobbered by a couple of sets. Surf seemed to be a solid 3'-5'. Those clean ups looked really big but I figured it was more me just being in the wrong spot at the wrong time that made them look big. They sure looked like 10'-0 faces at the...

This is not an airport. You do not have to announce your departure.

Not sure what years you are looking at but these things are bullet proof. My old Ranger never broke down

I am on my third Outback. Fits 3 longboards inside (9'-0, 9'-6 and a 10'-0). I usually take two boards but three will fit. If I have a passenger (almost never), I can put them on the roof rack. The first two had a little over 200,000 miles on them with no issues. Current is at 117,000 miles...

All 5 of my stings were at Bolsa after they opened up the jetty. Surfed there for 25 years without a hit. I got tired of it and have surfed almost exclusively at trails for the last 10 years with no stings (so far).

I have been stung 5 times in 40 years. I start paddling as soon as my fin is not dragging and do not touch the sand again until I am leaving and those little bastards still find me. Terrible pain. Kind of like an abscessed tooth.

A little background on Boardraxx. They are made by a friend of mine (Edgar) who is a long time Huntington Beach resident and surfer. We both worked in metal fabrication as Ironworkers. After he retired, he came up with Boardraxx and has been making them in his little steel shop / garage ever...

I love this one

I still have it.

Hiking and backpacking in the Eastern Sierra near Mammoth. I also golf and have a Corvette that I like to play with.

I retired in September and have been surfing 4-5 times per week ever since. Really fun waves all winter. Last week I cut my finger at home. 5 stitches. Surfed the next day because the waves were 3-5 and clean. Finger got infected. Minor surgery. Out of the water for two weeks. :rolleyes:
