Dan is headed to Maui for the week of July 24th-31st Aloha!

Aloha,
I'm heading over to Maui for a week on the 24th. Staying with my kid sister down in Kihei at our family's condo. Just me, no wife and kids. Translates to lots of time to snorkel, scuba, standup paddle surf, and kite. Going to be a great week, lots of exercise!

Totally Epic Day at Silver Strand - June 7th 2008

This is the kind of conditions that you travel 1000's of miles to get. 20-25 mph winds, waist to occasional head-high waves, oh man what a great day.

I rode my Underground 132 all day with my 14m Switchblade, it was slightly depowered, a 12 would have been perfect.

Lots of folks out, even the Oceanside crew had come down for this kind of wind. Kevin was ripping out there, and so was Kiki, Yoko, Vanessa, Max. Early in the morning Corky was just shredding waves both on a surfboard, and then late… Continue

Today just kept getting better and better up until about 5pm. Wow, what a great day! Stoked too that everyone was there, great to see everyone riding together and having fun!

I started out on my old Contra 17, but had to pack it away after one of the depower bungee cords gave out.

Worked out good because I put up my 14m SwitchBlade 2 and that rocked! I got some series float on some of my jumps. Thanks to everyone hooting and yelling from the beach, the encouragement definitely drives me to go… Continue

Stinkies session on May 14th.

What a great day to catch an hour or so of wind today. I had a blast.

By the time I showed up I think I counted 20 kites in the air. A bit crowded as we had a few n00b's in the mix. I did see a few collisions, and the guy with the red/grey SB2-14m flew his kite between the Ozone's lines and took them both to the island.

I went out on the water with a mission. I was going to throw down some new tricks or get wet trying.

I had some really smooth double front rolls with boned out tail grabs, and… Continue
