Hey All,

Heading to South Padre, May 2-9 Stoked to get out for a week and wondering if any old friends from the PNW will be down there then. Going down with some Durangotang kiters.

Calling Metaldog, Stringy, Consumer and all the Spit Crew. Miss Good River for sure, happy to see you all shredding, of course Durango turns out aint too shabby for kiting (and a whole lot more).

Could also use some advice on directionals. Saw the post on the sweet memory foam 6 footer, and checked out Silencer Boards. Had a 5"10 LibTech board, strapless with NSI pad, that I cracked landing on it in Baja in January, left it there. Kited on it in the Gorge for a year+, and then the Baja trip. Obviously I need a board in SPI and plan on demoing there but could use some direction. No need for foils in SPI, but a fun fast wave durable board that can also air out.

Cheers,
A

Colorado is in the Northwest, right?

Have you found shop that has a demo program similar to REAL's deal in Hatterus?
REAL's deal: $125/week, switch as often as you like.
