September Stoke

Brought my new toy out in 3' to 5' surf off Moody Beach, ME. This "Waveski" is light, fast and lively on the glassy waves. It's been a pleasant distraction while nursing a torn tendon in my foot.

Learning to Surf

Our family rental business on Moody Beach in ME has always been a great place to learn water sports. We have a variaty of beach "toys" to choose from, including: Kayaks, boogie-boards, Stand-up paddleboards, skimboards, tubes, and especially surfboards. Older bro, Doug spends his summers on the beach and really enjoys teaching others to surf. This clip shows the joy felt during and after that "first ride". We met this group from Quebec and they were anxious to get wet.

Hatters Winds 2015

Back for another dose of heaven on earth...

Spring Fling "on Sunday River"

Blue-bird day on the empty slopes of Sunday River. Conditions were perfect... and we had it to ourselves.

Last Blast 2015

World Record speed runs with Jeff Brown, Chad Lyons and Alex Wadson. We had epic winds, but the ice was bumpy and the reach was short and dangerous! I was desperate for a smaller sail, but had a need for speed.

Cruising Killington 2015

Great day with good friends at Killington Ski Resort in Vermont.

Bonaire Bliss "on the water"

Ami and I just booked a return visit to the island of Bonaire. Diving and windsufing with friends. Tossed this one together last night to get us psyched for the warm air and strong winds. This video shows life above the waterline. An earlier post will reveal what is under our feet while windsurfing. Change it to 1080!! http://withrowsontheblog.blogspot.com/2014/10/bonaire-snorkeling-in-lac-bay.html

Endless Winter

No wimps, no whiners... NE has seen record snowfall and bone-chilling temps. I filmed a sample of what most New Englanders are doing this weekend. Next weekend, I will be taking a sledge hammer to my ice dams. Embrace the winter, love it or leave it.

Borderland Bag tags

CAUTION: Not for the faint of ear. Hide your pets and children under the age of 7. Quick clip showing the process of Powdercoating Borderland Disc Golf bag tags. 100 tags in a variety of colors and textures. Players buy the tags then compete for the top ten... Ultimately #1 is the goal. Bang da chains...

Sunset on Sampson

Reunited a friend with a sport he loves. Gary met me on Sampson Pond in Carver, MA for a sunset cruise in very light wind. A perfect way to get back on the horse for Gary. Absolutely gorgeous black ice and "low sun lighting" made for a relaxing evening.

Smooth and Wet

I spent a few hours sailing on a mirror. Hard to describe the sensation of sailing on ice, through water. It was a beautiful, quiet and ultimately a wet day on Worden's Pond in Kingston, RI.

Opening Day (Sailing on Ice) 2015

Short but sweet session on Lake Nippenicket in Bridgewater, MA. I spent a couple of hours testing a new prototype and some changes made to the Ronin truck system. Regrettably, Vimeo rejected my music choice so I tossed in something that wouldn't raise a flag... Great way to start the new season!
