    Looks amazing. Wow. It will be painful to apply the wax to such a pretty thing. And yes, promising forecast for Saturday. Figures it would fall on a Saturday...you'll have to get out early.

    PS - did you bum that shirt off a tourist? haha!

    That is a beautiful board! Amazing work! If you make your way to the Scarborough/Higgins area shoot me a PM, I'd love to see that board in person! Good luck with the first surf, hopefully good conditions Saturday morning.

    Are you referig to the Maine blanket on my sofa ?my woman likes to make the home look all cozy I guess. It's not stolen I wouldn't want any filthy tourist sweat near me anyways. I gotta be at my cousins wedding in kennebunk Saturday so I'll prob be at gooches early morning. I'm hoping for clean Chest high, I think that will be good size to dial this board in. Let me know if any of you will be at kennebunk beach for the testing ceremony

    Just look for the guy on the crazy wooden stub that's probably me. I'll be dialing the board in so try not to attract a crowd to throw off my focus. If I'm not at gooches I'll be at long sands in the corner next to the cutty sark hotel.. North west wind is usually very clean there. image.jpg
