Stuck at work today. Sometimes being a chef can really make it hard to get out and meet people. Just ordered a Gravity 46" Into The Blue in hopes it can help with my training and being stuck inside. The guys at BC Surf and Sport in Florida are hooking me up. Hope to hear from anyone that has pointers and wouldn't mind including a newby that really wants to learn.

Sunset paddle

Posted by Frankie Mcphail on July 31, 2011 at 12:38am 1 Comment
