Hey, that's my buddy Jeremy Riggs! And the faces are kind of fuzzy but it looked like Alex Aguera in the Kalama/Go Foil tent. Maui represented. I had no idea they went to that. I've always wanted to do that event--one more reason to go to OZ.

Hey Bill that’s another buddy of yours at the 3.40 mark JC (Jonathan) and although we were expecting Alex he couldn’t make it.. I’m not sure if I was allowed to film that new Kalama Barrakuta DW board.. We’d love to see you here one day Bill..

Yes! Great to see Johnathan's face. I've been in touch with him via Whatsapp working on the Faux Drives. Is that his board with two drives? I haven't been following the developments lately but it seems like an interesting idea. I was expecting to see Adrian Roper too, but I didn't spot him. It's a small world in these sports. My wife was looking at one of the first issues of Standup Journal years ago and Diane said "Is there anyone doing this sport that isn't one of your friends?

No.. Jonathan is so light he doesn’t need two.. The guy was much bigger and he was using both to get up foiling and then used the lower foil drive only once up.. Jonathan is using a foil drive on his new DW sup/foil board.. My vid didn’t show the best of the event because I mostly filmed when quiet.. There was about 300 entered..
