Hey folks...I got my Gopro today and tried it out in some small surf, here in L.A.  I haven't learned how to get the resolution settings just right.  This is an experiment.

Whitey Harrison Classic - Saturday, Aug 6, 2011


Chuck Patterson, an extreme waterman, is someone I admire.  I’ve competed against Chuck in numerous surf competitions, and I must say, he is one fierce competitor.  He is a member of the all-star “Team California,” an outrigger squad comprised of some of the best paddlers on the West Coast.  Their mission is to dominate the outrigger circuit around the world.

 

I ran into Chuck after today’s 9-man outrigger race, a grueling 25-mile canoe race in Dana Point.  I said “hello.”  He wasn’t very friendly. 

I guess this makes sense because today, “Team California” got their asses kicked by my team, “Marina del Rey”!

WOO HOO…GO MARINA!

Hi folks, it's been very busy around here with SUP lessons, surfing, paddling outriggers and flying helicopters.  I'll try to get back to blogging on a regular basis...I've just been slammed.

We had a nice south swell a few weeks back.  Here's a picture of one of my favorite spots in L.A.


I'm getting ready for my first 9-man canoe race in Dana Pt.  There will be pictures forthcoming.
