Certain people who have nominated to be on the new committee have told me plainly that they feel I am a negative influence on AKSA, and that they do not want me to be involved in AKSA now or in the future. AWwww, KP - Fo' was just kidding with you - deep down there's a lot of love. There is $46,000...

If my sponsors* touted me as Sid, The Czar of Wave Riding , fudge would probably write things like: "What is this crap about Sid being a wave riding czar!?! 'Czar' is barely even a word!!! Besides, he rides waves like a guy with lots of extra chomos...

Kahuna & I have agreed to disagree on the licensing. Getting the government involved in anything usually doesn't make it better/safer. It will make it easier to ban your favorite area.
