Ho-Down Goes Really Well

The handplane ho-down was a really great time.. The waves and conditions were perfect for the event.  Everyone was stoked.  The atmosphere in the water and land was uplifting.  Funny, I would drift down to the peaks where the surfers were you could hear the hoots and hollering from the bodysurfers.  The surfers did not have the same sharing attitude and stoke.  Anyhow, I would like to thank the Brownfish crew for organizing the event, and hope we can do it again.  The paipos were working really good also.

My brother, Tom just sent this vid.  Pretty epic.  Everyone is shredding.  Note, the paipo/handplainer is on a double, triple overhead wave.  I think Tom is trying to say, riding different types of more floaty finless boards is good practice for alaia riding.  In the end their is nothing like the ride of an alaia.

Handplane ho-down

I have been getting some handplanes ready for th hanplane ho-down Saturda morning at San Clemente State Beach

 Simmons boards.  They were recently on display at the Remembering the Future at the Loft 9 Studio.

Present day quiver on hand for a really fun day at the beach.
