Yeehaw! wifey and I are headed to Oahu next month. I had to go to Mollusk surf shop and get some fresh boardies. Made right here in San Francisco their pattern is similar to Katin beach britches. Not too long but not hot pants either. It seems like every year the "surf trunks" get longer and longer. Soon we'll be wearing pants in the lineup. Well, not me.

   If I can get the funds together I'll be getting a new short board to keep over there. See. Not only is my wife the most delightful person on earth, she also happens to be from Pearl City. Located roughly equidistant from the north and south shores, it is the birth place of Town And Country surf designs. My in-laws still live there in the house she grew up in. Ill likely get a modern fishish shape for the smaller waves in town. T&C do import boards but they also have a factory in Wahiawa (where wifey was born). You know if I get something I post some photos.

  Unfortunately The triathlon I wanted to enter is happening while I'm away. So sad. But that didn't stop me from getting this groovy pair of American made New Balance. The lionshare of new balance are now imported but they have several domestic options to choose from. Whoo-hoo!
