Creek!! Great pictures! Made my day. And I had a good day to begin with. Mostly work, of the screwing around kind, but work nonetheless.

JimK's?
Of course there will be donuts 🍩☕️

His website may give the time.
I just show up with the boards tonight and do what I am told 😃

Thanks Creek for stopping by VA Beach with the van full of goodies.
What's not pictured is Creek trunkin' it and ripping in our 55 degree tropical waters while the proners were in full boots and gloves. Lots of hoots going out on that fun day.

The plan for Saturday is to meet at Extreme Windsurfing around 8am Then my "Dock Boy" (and all around great employee) Jason will lead you to the best conditions SNJ has for you
Unfortunately, I had a little bit of a medical issue so I'm temporarily restricted in my driving I will be at the shop latter Saturday morning but I hope to catch up to you at the beach sat morning

Really looking forward to seeing everyone

Haha chest2head, I just figured out who you are😃
Thanks, that was fun!
I frickin' love Va Beach, people and waves are really fun!

I am in Brigintine, enjoying an after ferry taco salad!
Spent the afternoon with wetstuff in MD, wandering around the horses on Assatique Island.

Great day Thursday in Va Beach.... an early morning surf check found empty waves in the middle of town, a few blocks from my friends house,  so we did some urban surfing.

She took a few videos of me after her session, so I grabbed some stills off them to share. Another Virginia Beach gift.
I was riding the 8'10 Flow.... so stoked with this board! A totally different animal than my 9'2 Flow was..... I am liking it much more!
Nancy rode the ONE 9'5 and caught her 1st waves since shoulder surgery.

As usual... people stopped by us to ask about the boards  :)

Later, I dropped by Freedom Surf Shop to visit with Dave and Doug and shared some surf stoke. They have a great shop, so if you are in Virginia Beach, make sure to stop by and check out some Sunovas!

Thanks Spirit, so many great people to meet out there on the road!
I am having a blast!

Yesterdays demo at JimK's was really fun, with a great crew of Zoners and Zone guests. I left my SD reader in my van at Jimkland so I cant post about the session till tonight. 

After a great dinner last night at an awesome creekfront venue, we spent Saturday night broken down on the highway into Atlantic City (not my van)
Always something interesting to experience on the road  >:(

It was great to meet Rick (creek) Tino and his son Nalu at Jim K' place (Extreme Windsurfing) on Sunday.  I really missed seeing the rest of the local Zoners on Saturday but a vet appointment (no-worries, just a wellness visit) got in the way.  It was a blast watching Nalu rip it up on the Onewheel on Jim K's boardwalk, and then later on a SUP...remarkable balance!

Rick had his van full of Sunova boards of all types and sizes; what an awesome opportunity to try a few out.  The winds were blowing on shore, but it was totally surfable. 

The big surprise for me was the 8'10" x31 1/8" flow.  At 210lbs plus wetsuit, this board felt remarkably stable paddling out through the chop.  And once on the wave, like a time machine, it transported me back to my short board days! 

Also as a side note, I gained some new appreciation for the LiftSup handles.  They really came in handy moving the boards back and forth from the van to the beach in the 15-20mph on-shores.

Great to see everyone Check out our Facebook page for Pier pics from Mike C
I REALLY regret not getting out with you guys it would have been a blast but in my current condition that looks like a couple of weeks away...Creek Tino and Nalu were a blast (although Nalu told me he doesn't like America food ...He's 9)

Already looking forward to Creek's next visit

Creek,
Your tours look like so much fun and a great way to share the stoke! Any plans to turn it into a 'Grand Tour' and bring the tour over to the UK??!!
