I am always looking for new people to ride with, we should get a pelicans surf or snowboard day going sometime!
I am so down with that idea! Let's do it! I have never been to Mammoth and heard it is awesome! Kind of a pain to fly into though. I have been to Alpine and Squaw up in Tahoe. Winterpark in CO. Snow is so much better than what we have at our little AZ resorts. And hey, I am going to be in Long Beach all next week! Where do you go surfing? Know anybody who gives lessons? Want to fit in a session or two next week if I can... PM me.

Ahhhh... this guys gives me hope. Although not much. Again, I live in AZ! I need to make a lot of money and move to CA...

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Woo Hoo! Good for you, nostatic! So cool! Keep going and keep us updated!

Holy mother!!! Awesome pictures, Baz!!!! Post more! And ummm... can't go out every day. I live in AZ. Like I said, I need to make a ton of money somehow and move to CA... It is going to be a slow process with all my crazy hobbies. Still saving up for my 911s.

MORE PICS, PEOPLE!!! And where are the snowboarding pictures? I don't have any of me going down the mountain... have some sitting on my butt! LOL!
