[In The Surf]

I enjoyed the show today. I wasn't there for the venue but the show itself to score on some goodies and see some familiar faces. It was good to see some of the members I've met over the last couple of years and meet some new ones. Met some builders and got some sweet wood (Chumbucket (Matt) a small wonderbread surfster (sort of), PNG (Chris) a couple of large and small Nikes, Canalman (Dave) and F18 (Dave) several different plugs, all out of black rubber at that point but I'm sure I'll get some before it's time to use 'em) also scored a squid beachmaster danny and some needles from CMS. Got to have a laugh and speak with the guys from OTW and check out the Striper Cup. Jay was also nice enough to pose for a picture with the cup with me and my girl. Saw lots of real schweet vintage pluggage. Oh yeah and met the other Dave LaPorte AKA Captain CupCake lol (sorry Dave had to throw that in).
