Wanted to say thanks to Steve Fisher for taking a potential bust of a weekend and turning it into a most excellent adventure at the coast. Smile And HUGE thanks to the coasties for welcoming us in and finding us the spot to ride on Saturday. The wind was only blowing in about a three or four mile zone on the north coast and they got everybody there at the right time and place.

Some of the crew made it out in time on Friday to get some wave action in, others of us only caught the coast on Saturday and then Jones Beach on Sunday. Always fun to show up somewhere new and see all your homies killin' it!

So, nuff yappin - how bout some more pics! (Pics by Tony, Carol and Nicole). If you want to know I can figure it out.

Enjoy!

Tony
