As much as I'd love to be there, It's just too damn far away. I've not missed this event since 2006. I've got to ship my ski, drive 50 miles to Jacksonville, catch a flight to Atlanta to arrive in West Palm, then drive an hour or so to Daytona... LOL!! I'm there for sure! (please pick me up...

Don't know if it applies.. I rode Sanoman's ROK when he visited a while ago. (pre-freak). As an sj rider I find it hard to make any kind of judgement when it comes to AM hulls. Not because of the hulls, but because of the extreme power plants that they often contain. Don's ROK had reasonable...

We all dream of inventing an item that might not change the world...but will at least make us a buttload of money. Eveything that I invent, or have an idea for, turns out to already exist. (after MS Word came out I had the idea for the typewriter) lol. So, I've diverted my creative thought...

Not to thread-jack... The ultimate goal was to put a BB in someones ass. Then he'd have to drop his pants for Mrs. Mancini to get the BB out. lol.

And we used to ride down flights of stairs in cardboard refrigerator boxes. And it was fun. And we had "semi-real" war games with BB guns (5 pump rule...no CO2). And it was fun. (a friends mom was a nurse and would remove the BB's that we couldn't squeeze out) Things like this land parents in...

I find it hard to believe that you're afraid of water.....lol.

Agreed totally! But...Like I said, it was all by accident. I was about to get munched. The logical move would have been to turn the other direction and get out in front. I don't know why I turned into the wave, but it's not hard to stick the nose of a stock sj hull into a 12' wall. I guess the...

So! It can be called a new move! MDD!

Very cool!.....until the drunk guy driving the boat slams the throttle down.....you know it will happen...lol. Then it will be an illegal toy within months. But right now, I think it's cool!

It's been done b4, I'm sure. It may have a name as well.... I'm sure that "wydopen" will let us know. (that's not a snap!...he's just the ultimate surf purist.)

So let it be written: "MDD". (motorized duck-dive)

Sorry no vid/pics. (not pemitted where I ride..lol) Anyway, while riding the waves that Sandy gave us, I did this thing by accident. Worked the face for a good long groundswell ride. As the wave began to close out in front of me it offered a nice re-entry opportunity. However, I was late...

I've had a recurring nightmare for 40 years......and that's the wave that I'm trying to escape from.... Unreal..

Just finished some wrenching on Jays' ski... Will be at the spot shortly after daybreak and take what we get! Just from looking at the ocean...I don't think it's gonna last long. Over-hyped as usual. There's definitely some size for now, but still a mess. It's all about the wind at this point...

nice pics!

holds or straps both keep your feet in the tray. (a good thing). But, to be fair: you must stay out of the sun or cover all of your skin with clothing or the latest batter with spf 1000. Straps are good as long as they are not visible with the dress you are wearing. Otherwise...go strapless...

Great pics! Love the "foot-drag on the drop-in" one the most! I saw foot straps! lol...

A live beach-cam a bit north of the spot.... http://www.southbeachgrill.net/live-beach-camera Looks a lot better in the daytime... Heard on the radio that Volusia County beaches are closed to vehicles until Monday. Might have to drive thru water to get to the spot.... high tide at 8:29 am...

Sunday! (can't go Monday). The wind is supposed to calm late Sat into Sun....Sun N/W. We were spoiled last year. Can't let this one go past without showing up! SATURDAY: Wind backing from north to side-offshore from the N/NW 13-24 mph (gusts to gale force still possible early in the morning)...

dump a half a cup or so into the gas tank. Burn the tank.
