Wow, I guess it's pretty warm there already?
That arm swing reminds me of The D! |

Great pics Stringy,
When I was last in NC, Dimitri, myself, and a couple of guys out of Rhode Island did Planet of the Apes, a downwinder to Waves from Avon, pulling out at Kite Hatteras. It was a rad day. Dimitri had a GPS on his arm and the 15 mile downwinder ended up being 33 miles when we finished. If anyone gets the opportunity to ride Planet of the Apes and all the "slicks" in between, DO IT! I learned to ride between Hatteras Island and Nags Head and sure do miss it. Thanks for the pics and stirring up some memories. Oh, and if anyone gets to ride with Dimitri, DO IT!. Dimitri is unbelievable to watch, especially back in the day when it was wreckless abandonment and he landed only but a few of his hundred attempts. LOL. Nothing even close to the text book riding he can pull off now.

Stringy,
Sweet pics man!!! Hopefully, the wind picked back up for you there... Too bad I'll miss Dimitri as he's leaving Sunday for Europe! Thanks for the stoke! Sorry, we won't be there at the same time...
Have fun and keep the great pics coming!

janet,
I think D is back in obx on Sunday so you'll be able to hook up with him.
Here's a shot of him in the surf.
