 Gorge is gorgeous!

 Happy 4th of JULY!

While Kev is over on the moon (Gran Canaria) I’m in the Gorge getting some great sailing conditions! So far, I’m 3 for 3 on the water….. I have forgotten how much fun it is sailing over here. Conditions are different than anything I’m used to but after a couple hours on the water, I am getting back in the groove. It is great to see some new blood over here. A lot of the local boys are really ripping it up! The Poor brothers, Tyson and Witt have some impressive moves up their sleeves as do riders like Bryan Metcalf-Perez, Wyatt Miller, Sven Esslinger- and there are some ripper chicks out there throwing down some moves as well.

We had an insane lightning and thunder storm last night- it was radical. I love that kind of thing- mother nature at her finest! The wind doesn’t look so good this morning but I bet it will be here later this afternoon.

If any of you bloggers are in the Hood River area, I’m going to be in the Gorge Surf Shop on Sunday, the 6th of July running the store…….. so there are going to be some smokin deals going on!!!!!!!!!!!! Come in and say hi-

Good luck to KP- send him some words of encouragement, we want to see him take that Slalom title this year……. Go boy GO!

I was at Dougs on Thursday July 2nd and saw Matt sail. It was amazing to see. Huge airs! Huge loops! I was really cool to see how you can sail that place. Impressive. I also was filming a bit and got some pretty good HD video shots of Matt. One really big forward and some good duck tack shots some wave slashing. If you guys want to see the shots I got let me know you can use them for your site if you want.
