I've never seen anyone else rest their paddle on the board, I think she's catching her breath or something. Anyway, it's a tribute to the stability of the Laird board.<BR/><BR/>The guy that kept falling in was holding his paddle backwards! It's pretty hard to paddle like that. <BR/><BR/>That wasn't my kayak--mine are trimarans and pretty recognizable, there's a <A HREF="http://www.ponohouse.com/ponoblog/?page_id=120/" REL="nofollow">picture here.</A> No idea what that was.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11399910.post-76443582486662544462007-03-11T21:37:00.000-10:002007-03-11T21:37:00.000-10:00Hey Paolo, I got a replacement for that helmet cam...Hey Paolo, I got a replacement for that helmet cam finally, and it works pretty good. I have a long boring video of a session today at Kanaha on the Jimmy Lewis 11'7" and a Superfreak 7.0. I'll edit it down and post it on my blog so you can see the video quality--which is actually pretty good. <BR/><BR/>Couldn't get the audio to work, but that might be a blessing. My language isn't PG or perhaps even normal XXX when I blow yet another jibe. <BR/><BR/>I have, however, found a fairly reliable way for me to jibe big longboards--a clew first slow jibe. Not pretty, but what have I done recently that was (except for bringing my lovely wife to the beach). <BR/><BR/>You've got to try this big Jimmy Lewis in the waves.

Unfortunately the "young lady" did not come through with the entertainment I was expecting, but I'll let my imagination take me there!<BR/><BR/>Stronger Konas today, expect you'll be sailing. surf mo bettah today<BR/><BR/>oh - that was not me running - due to my knee injury I won't be doing any more of that till after surgery. A sacrifice I can live with if I can still surf.... which is what I was doing at that time instead ... stand up at back yards - big fun on big blue. I think it rides like a giant fish board, very loose and turney, which is great, but I wouldn't take it to Jaws!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11399910.post-37630251353591299782007-03-08T22:21:00.000-10:002007-03-08T22:21:00.000-10:00Again nice post.
