Well....hellfire & damnation......saw my first moto board in VB this wknd. As predicted: they're here. I was trying to surf the weak stuff in the North End on Monday morning with a buddy. Every 15 minutes, maybe, something would come through to ride. We both look up & out about 200 yards to where some dude is paddling his board north. He was really flying across the water. My buddy laughs & says, damn, that dude is cookin'! I'm staring out at the guy & yes, he really was moving - - he was zooming so fast that there was spray coming from the front of his board, like a small boat would make. The guy then took a quick break from moving his arms but the board kept cranking. I called out, that's one of those 5 thousand dollar motorized boards! That's when the reality smacked us: they're here. They're finally here. And it's only a matter of time before you see them in your lineup, brutha. Lee the Stud, are you listening ? VB will be changed forever.

Pretty much what to expect in your lineup with this 'innovation:' "...he was joined out in the water with his 69 year old mom who body boarded on some pretty sweet waves with a little Wavejet boost."
