Welcome back Sup Committed. I always liked your sup commitment and writing style.
I sorta missed hearing from you. Your sponsors picture of you ripping off a top is nice introduction.

Hi Sam, I'm an absolute Newb compared to you but have heard tons of good things about you from Zone members, watched your "Tail Handle 101" many times, and have been grateful countless times for the handles I put on my boards as a result. Look forward to learning more from you. Jorge

Sam:

Welcome back and thanks for all your great posts from years ago. 

They are still read carefully today by many of us newer to the sport and we have benefitted from your ocean wisdom.  I particularly scoured your tail handle threads and videos closely and then put tail handles on all my boards; so someone you never have met has managed to avoid injury to himself or others and also has had more fun sessions by rereading your old posts.  Multiply that by hundreds or thousands of others....

I'm touched Jorge. Sharing my Mana'o (experience/knowledge) is mainly what it's all about. Anyway I can contribute to keeping this sport safe (with my tail handle idea) is a positive step forward. I'm glad you find a benefit to the use of tail handles. And in the end we ALL can learn from each other....Beside that what this forum is all about...Stoke to meet you and maybe one day we'll share a wave together.....Aloha

Welcome back Sam!  8)
😉 I'm stoked to be back....Mahalo

WOW!!!......I'm so over whelmed. I was reading some recent post and seen my name dropped so many times. I never in my wildest dreams I had an impact to the newbies and even the vets of this forum. Glad to here an idea I had helps keep you/others safe......I'm humbled 😌

Hey Sam,

I took your tow-in course and you really gave some inspiring talks.
You SUP experience from Sunset and being held down was powerful stuff.

Are you in town surfing every now and then?

Welcome back Sam. I bought one of the "fully committed" stickers from you in 2008ish. Always got a lot of comments!  You doing Olukai this year?

sharing that experience from sunset was really heavy and I hope no one has to go though that expirence. I've been in town surfing every morning 5am to 5:45 just before I start work. Come by if your up to an early morning dawn patrol.  :-\

Welcome back Sam. I bought one of the "fully committed" stickers from you in 2008ish. Always got a lot of comments!  You doing Olukai this year?
Hope the comment were all good vibes. Yup i did Olukai this year and I had such a great time.....Awesome time with great friends

It's great to have such skilled people here.
made lots of mistakes, learned from them so you don't have to make same mistakes I did.....Sharing my Mana'o is what it's all about.  :)

Aloha and Mahalos Sam! Great to have you back to share your knowledge and experience here!  8)  8)  8)
great to be back....mahalo

Welcome back sam.
