In Response To: Thanks. Tell stories Jed (M. Hamilton)

: Jed I think I know who you are referring to.

: The Brits are cool, if not a bit too structured, but you have to understand
: the poor food these chaps have grown up with. Nigel Foster is a great guy I
: think, so I'm guessing it was the other guy.

I've heard nothing but great things about both Nigels and it was neither one of them that shared that little pearl of wosdom with me.

: The Necky boats are cool, but sometime try to get into a Stingray. My surfing
: buddy used to work at Necky and really helped designed the whitewater
: stuff. He's moved on and custom builds terrific kevlar graphite surf
: boats. Super fast and responsive. I think you'd love the difference.

I'd love to find out more about the Stingray. Could you send me some contact info? I don't get a chance to surf all that much being on the right coast, but I plan to do more this coming winter.

: I'd like, as would others I'm sure, to hear the horror stories.

I'm not much a writer of stories but I have this tendency to get caught in front of very steep waves such that when I try to lean into them my shoulder hits the wall of water while I'm still upright. Then of course it's a challenge to avoid being windowshaded. LOL I'll try to put something together so all can have a good chuckle.

Take care, again good luck with the eye guy.
