unfortunately, it's not the Hawaiian juice that i started on, but to end up living smack in the heart of midwest and having a place to 'surf' within an hour's drive during summer, i considered myself extremely lucky.

Very cool. I just noticed where you live. No need for flowriders down here. Notice the background in my pic? Hutchinson Island gets overhead a few times a year, and is a fairly consistant break during the winter months.

I just need to get a board now.

Hi Aji,

I'm not sure where the blade is made. I'm guessing Sulawesi. I was told that the blade was previously owned by one of the Selangor Royal family member. True or not? I really dont know.

You know, frankly, i wouldn't much worry about who once owned that blade as long as it's yours now.
Sweet!

Hi Nechesh,

Unfortunately, i only owned the blade, not the dress. Time to find a good one for it.

last time i was back in the Islands was two years ago; actually scored some pretty decent shorebreak at sandys and also a freak one day overhead wind swell at Pipeline. this was summer time, so needless to say, there were only four of us out there.

that's another reason why i can't wait to go to PI in february; score some hidden empty spots over there (mindanao). risky? kinda. worth it? definitely...

mindanao juice
