I was going to post these with a challenge to the ski clubs to put this act in their shows but then, as I told Jerry Welch, I'm so glad we never had to do something this awkward this in the shows that I could hardly challenge a ski club to do it...

Can you just picture Peter Potamus kneeboarding it into some island in Polynesia Uncharted in these waves?

Poetry Corner
So what goes through Peter Potamus' mind as he paddles in his kneelo paddleboard towards some uncharted Polynesian island from the Magic Balloon otherwise at anchor just off the Three-Mile Line?
No doubt in his nakedness, the better to avoid embarrassment among the natives who are otherwise content in their nakedness and their sexual candor and directness which "Civilisation" risks bringing about.
But it can certainly feel refreshing to find Peter naked in his sojourn, maybe splashing a little water on himself every now and then for keeping cool during the journey.
And to just sense some awe and wonder as dolphins of the wild jump about, as if in welcome to Peter's presence unto such a wondrous paradise ... and also hugging and caressing one or two as swim past.
Such obviously being a delightful display of dolphin friendship in such lands, otherwise unexplored and still wild by and large, whose natives and the wild dolphins surrounding can't help but be most extraordinary companions.
Such being a show of trust and friendship in ways most surprising to the average person (though not going into the details here) between dolphin and human in ways which, as Peter puts it, "must make Flipper jealous."
And what a welcome must await Peter ...
Do these weekly exercises in poesy still fascinate thee, fellow Hanna-Barberians? And hast thou poesy you wish to share here?

kinda crushed it on the indoor boogie board/kneeboard/surf simulator today, and am unreasonably proud about it
#I was cruising laying down and the attendant was encouraging me to go to my knees#So I pulled up but lemme tell you. The balance is different from kneeboarding.#Almost lost my entire swimsuit and got knocked around a bit and fully flushed ny sinuses with chlorine#I used to be SO freaked out about water up my nose. Still dont love it.#But I did the Water Guarantee Up Your Nose activity anyway. And wiped out. And then got up and finished my time!#Indoor waterpark on Christmas was a great idea if I do say so myself#Tam.txt

A TALE OF TWO BOARDS AND ONE WAVE
This is not a design article or surf trip story, but rather a combination of words that came to me after a recent trip overseas.
After 6 weeks of traveling throughout Europe and no surfing apart from a few 6” body surfing waves in the Mediterranean Sea off Italy, we arrived in Bali. I didn’t have any boards with me, but I had an old favorite stashed at my good friend, Captain Peter Fletcher’s house near Canggu.
Peter passed away nearly a year to the day that Karen and I arrived in Bali. His wife, Lia, graciously let me get my old board and also one that I had shaped for Peter a couple of years ago.
Packing up the boards to go to G-Land, it really hit me how lucky we are to be able to still go surfing even as getting older limits our options and the surf is getting more crowded all the time. Peter and I had made tentative plans last year to meet up in G-Land late season last year, but his sudden illness and passing put an end to that.
As it was, Peter’s board was the exact same dimensions as mine but a completely different shape and volume. Mine was a 6ft, 4 fin swallow fish tail and basically the same board that I have been taking to G-Land and Indo for years - tried and proven. Peter’s was a 6ft tri-fin arrow pin tail but more voluminous even though the same length, width, and thickness.
Anyway, arriving in G-Land after 6 weeks of no surfing and enjoying the food and drink of Europe, the waves were 6 to 8ft and pretty good. I surfed my trusty fishtail the first day and felt back at home on it, even though pretty unfit surfways.
The next day started off a bit smaller, so I took the pintail out to the top of the reef where the waves had more face and walls so as to get a feel for it. I could tell it had too much foam for me, but it did catch waves well, and I managed to jag a few nice long steep waves but not barrels. As the morning wore on, the swell came up, and after getting a long wave to the bottom end of the reef, I decided to sit with the crowd and try to get a real G-Land barrel.
I'm not particularly spiritual, but after waiting for a good hour, it seemed like I got a message to slowly drift out and sit next to a boil that started to appear just as the tide was dropping. After sitting there for about 15 minutes and simply enjoying the ambience of looking back to the jungle with the sun shining, wind blowing offshore, and swells rolling, I felt in a real happy place. Especially when there was no one sitting anywhere near me, and I caught a glimpse of what looked like the biggest set of the day on the way.
All it took was to sit tight and wait for it – a big perfect set wave aimed straight for me. Everyone else was either too deep inside or too far away to get out to me. The accompanying video shows what happened, and this is where the "One Wave, Two Boards" headline is associated. Pete’s board was so different from mine, but it still handled the wave no problem, except for when my knee slipped off halfway through the ride. Probably because of the extra volume and different fin location and set-up, I was not quite at home on the board but trusted it to make it to the other end. As can be seen, it was a bit of a rodeo ride!
As I turned off the wave, I again thought how lucky I was to be surfing and how we should not dwell on the negatives of crowded surf spots, onshore, wrong tides, flat spells, etc., but rather be appreciative of the gift that surfing is.
In my head, I said, "Thanks, Captain Pete," for the wave as I reckon it was him who guided me into it. And I dedicated the buzz I got from that ride to him.
RIP old friend Captain Peter - I'm sure you are sailing fair seas somewhere.

Waterproof Paper Pack
When it comes to critical information you need to protect it. In the written form, radio frequencies, GPS locations, bearings, descriptions, OTG maps, building layouts, people timings/movements all need to be protected. The simplest method to that is waterproof paper. If its important enough to write down its important enough to protect it.
You can clip these sheets to your kneeboard, (Available In Store) notepad or other writing method and know the critical information is safe on the waterproof paper no matter what the operation or climate offers you.
You can write with anything from Space Pen to Frixion pen, standard biro, pencil and even a China pencil.
Once you start to use paper this way, you refuse anything else
Dont forget to Like, Repost and Follow Us

Release: August 29, 2012
Lyrics:
Hey Macklemore? can we go thrift shopping?
What, what, what, what
What, what, what, what
What, what, what, what
What, what, what, what
What, what, what, what
What, what, what, what
What, what, what, what
What, what, what, what
I'm gonna pop some tags
Only got twenty dollars in my pocket
I, I, I'm hunting, looking for a come-up
This is fucking awesome
Nah walk up to the club like, what up, I got a big cock!
I'm just pumped, just bought some shit from the thrift shop
Ice on the fringe, it's so damn frosty
The people like, Damn! That's a cold ass honkey.
Rollin' in, hella deep, headin' to the mezzanine
Dressed in all pink, 'cept my gator shoes, those are green
Draped in a leopard mink, girls standin' next to me
Probably shoulda washed this, smells like R. Kelly's sheets
(Piss)
But shit, it was ninety-nine cents! (Bag it) Coppin' it, washin' it
'Bout to go and get some compliments
Passin' up on those moccasins someone else's been walkin' in them
Bummy and grungy, f*ck it man, I am stuntin' and flossin' and
And savin' my money and I'm hella happy that's a bargain, bitch
I'ma take your grandpa's style, I'ma take your grandpa's style
No for real ask your grandpa can I have his hand-me-downs?
(Thank you) Velour jumpsuit and some house slippers
Dookie brown leather jacket that I found diggin'
They had a broken keyboard, I bought a broken keyboard
I bought a skeet blanket, and then I bought a kneeboard
Hello, hello, my ace man, my Miller
John Wayne ain't got nothing on my fringe game, hell no
I could take some Pro Wings, make them cool, sell those
The sneaker heads would be like Aw, he got the Velcros
I'm gonna pop some tags
Only got twenty dollars in my pocket
I, I, I'm hunting, looking for a come-up
This is fucking awesome
I'm gonna pop some tags
Only got twenty dollars in my pocket
I, I, I'm hunting, looking for a come-up
This is fucking awesome
(Goodwill, poppin' tags, yeah!)
What you know about rockin' a wolf on your noggin?
What you knowin' about wearin' a fur fox skin?
I'm digging, I'm digging, I'm searching right through that luggage
One man's trash, that's another man's come up
Thank your granddad for donating that plaid button-up shirt
'Cause right now I'm up in her skirt
I'm at the Goodwill, you can find me in the (Uptons)
I'm that, I'm that sucker searchin' in that section (Uptons)
Your grammy, your aunty, your momma, your mammy
I'll take those flannel zebra jammies, second-hand, I rock that motherfucker
The built-in onesie with the socks on that motherfucker
I hit the party and they stop in that motherfucker
They be like, Oh, that Gucci. That's hella tight
I'm like, Yo that's fifty dollars for a T-shirt
Limited edition, let's do some simple addition
Fifty dollars for a T-shirt, that's just some ignorant bitch (Shit)
I call that getting swindled and pimped (Shit)
I call that getting tricked by a business
That shirt's hella dope
And having the same one as six other people in this club is a hella don't
Peep game, come take a look through my telescope
Trying to get girls from a brand? Then you hella won't
Then you hella won't
I'm gonna pop some tags
Only got twenty dollars in my pocket
I, I, I'm hunting, looking for a come-up
This is fucking awesome
I wear your granddad's clothes
I look incredible
I'm in this big ass coat
From that thrift shop down the road
I wear your granddad's clothes
I look incredible
I'm in this big ass coat
From that thrift shop down the road
Is that your grandma's coat?
I'm gonna pop some tags
Only got twenty dollars in my pocket
I, I, I'm hunting, looking for a come-up
This is fucking awesome

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗮 𝟭𝟵𝟲𝟰 𝗞𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 🏄♂️ #surfhistory
In the early 1960s, Bob McTavish and George Greenough combined their talents, merging Greenough’s innovative kneeboarding with McTavish’s shaping mastery. This collaboration ignited the shortboard revolution, changing surfing and board design forever. 🌊🏄♂️ After watching George shred in the morning, I was motivated to build my own board. Using a junkie blank, I shaped and glassed a replica of George’s knee-board. Russell and I tested it at "the bluff"—a mellow spot with small waves—but struggled to catch anything, even at the beach break. We left the board aside, and George headed back to California. But a year later, when George returned, things got exciting.
Stay tuned for more!
