Rode PAG for 2 hours from 3-5. Very well powered with a high aspect 18m nemesis launching off of the breaking waves getting killer hang time.

I can't believe you guys are riding that stinky flat water muck hole on a SW! LOL! This is the ideal direction for wave jumping! It only happens once in awhile, next time you should take advantage of it if you ride left foot forward.

Ah well glad you got out there to ride, it was a blast at PAG. The water was blue and green, and the waves were fairly clean inside with chop on the outside. Lots of girls in bikinis asking for rides.

Rode in SRQ today with a few of the die hards down there. We were dodging squalls. Sounds like it was cleaner in your neck of the woods. Awesome--nothing like having a sick session in Florida...in July!

big thanx to mister E. that 16m rhino rocks, i rode BB fully powered launching off the waves (hand held wind meter was reading 17-20 when we started at 1pm),
it was hillarious when the storms rolled in, everybody left the beach thinking it was going to downpour,
and it did... about a quarter mile south of where i was :lol: pitch black with rain, but i only got a few drops, i figure you guys at BS got poured on pretty bad, i hope everybody got out in time

Yahooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Got my first jump today, one handed 360, didn't even need the board.....
From now on call me " The quickest quick release on this side of Missisipi"

i love the stink

....

also.. i needed some flat water relief today.. finally nailed down the backroll.. im super duper stoked .. landing them a high percentage at a time.. hit a few quite high off the water.. was damn sweet.

next up... front roll baby!!!

anyone got some advice on that one???.. it seems treacherous ... backrolls you can get your spin off the pop.. front looks like you pop and force the rotation after you release..

i find them easier and way more fun, i do twice as many front rolls as back now :lol:

backside skyway, fun.

was lovin the squalls on the 7 meter switchblade.

Bryan, pick up the REAL Joyride DVD, some great tips on grabs, backrolls, frontrolls, and some other intermediate tricks...

Had a blast at BS Skyway today with you all, nicely powered on my 17.5 Machine and landed a jump for the first time today!!! 8)

If anyone found a Flexifoil chicken loop or Steve's shades please let us know...

And it wasn't that stinky today Tom, you missed out on the odor relief...or maybe I just have a cold and my nose is stuffed up :lol: !

Rode there yesterday and came home smelling like a fishing boat. At least the beaches have fresh water showers! At backside all you have is the mangrove golden shower... of which I'll pass.

Congrats on the backrolls and jumps. I tried and landed my first unhooked kiteloops out there yesterday... easier than I expected but not as fun as hooked in because I can't do them as high... need a lot more practice.
