A great set of photos. That dolphin picture is my favorite from the ones you shared.

Thanks for taking the time to post all of them.

If my memory serves me correctly, carbon fiber is an excellent conductor of electricity. With a carbon fiber paddle in that photo along with the lightning bolt, some people are just asking for "it" if you get my drift.

The guy is lucky he didn't end up as "lightning statistic" for cause of death.

Nice video. Looks like you had some nice water conditions. The board really looked smooth as it rode on the waves. Of course, I'm sure your skill had something to do with it.

Google car racks and the first two choices will probably be Yakima and Thule. I use the Thule brand roof racks which are on my Chevy Silverado. Yakima and Thule should have a roof rack to fit on your 2012 Sonata.

Looks like you had a nice ride at the end riding that wave.

Thanks for sharing your video.

Reminds me of when I was working before I retired which equates to:

"Any day on the water beats a good day at work."

An awesome recap. Glad to see you were able to take lots of photos and that seat rack caught my eye since I might be getting a small suv in the future.

Thanks for sharing your recap and taking the time to post all of your photos.

Enjoy that new board of your's. Get as much paddling in as you can before the weather starts turning cold from cool.

I'm a big fan of America's Cup racing. I was glad to watch both of these videos because the 2013 AC race should be a great series of races with these new foiling innovations.

Now this place is my idea of a late evening paddle.

Thanks for taking the time to post your pictures.

Funny. The most interesting part of this video, I knew one third of what each slang word was.

Thanks for sharing this funny video.

I enjoyed listening to John Amundson's technical comments concerning his line of boards along with the different construction for his models.

I'm guessing ... 3-5 minutes of fun on a 20,000mAh 6S battery pack pulling a person 150-160 lbs.

I agree. The battery life of that drone doing pulling a surfer has got to be absolutely horrendous. As they say, "Short but sweet".
