I just joined onto this site. I grew up here in SD and have used to love surfing (although I was not great at it) swimming, snorkeling, diving.. you name it. In becoming a parent I have been out of it for a few years. Now I am getting back in the water and found many of your posts to be inspiring.
Just got back the other day from Hawaii. Saw all the SUP folks at Dukes Oceanfest on Queens Beach. I tried it and loved it (although I still stink at it). I rode along song the locals while outrigger/canoe surfing. I will continue to read your discussions as I would like to break into the SUP world. Mahalo!

Hi John,
Thanks so much, I was just chatting with Mike. You are a great group of guys and I appreciate the warm welcome!
Everyone I have spoken to has mentioned how addicting the sport is. I did not do so well trying it out in Hawaii, but I LOVED IT! I am looking forward to breaking into the sport and learning from all you pro's!
