A 5'4 Mandala - Possibly the best Birthday Present Ever
Happy Birthday Kirk and congrats on you're new Mandala! Anne gets the wife of the year award for sure.
Kirk found this little beauty this morning floating in his Jacuzzi. I've surfed with Kirk on his birthday for manny years and usually in June it is 1 foot slop. How stoked is he that a new board comes with some glassy waves! See you in the water my friend.

Manny Caro, Eli Mirandon and David Gray on Drift
Leucadia shaper Manny Caro of Mandala has a great little interview on Diftsurfing.com. Check it out. I also was stoked to see that one of David Gray's shots of Eli Mirandon was used as well in the interview. Way to go guys!

Blog Shopping My Dream Quiver
With everyone getting new boards I decided to go blog shopping and pick out a few for my Dream Quiver. Even if for a few moments I can dream of having these boards in my possession. Who knows, someday I will? (Manny, Dennis, you want to hook a blogger up?) After looking around for a while I found a couple that caught my eye. Since this is only a dream I'm going to have a big quiver so there are plenty more blogs to look through. For now these will be the first two I add to my collection.

(originally posted as a 5'11" but I'm stuck on my magic number.) What can I say. You have to love Manny's work. His boards are like eye candy. I believe this is the the same board Eli rode at Black's that day David got shots. Oh my. If I get the board could I surf like that?

18" x 22 3/8" x 14" : 3" thick
If you are going to own a longboard it has to be a Murphy in my book. Especially in Leucadia. Not many people know this but the Iron Cross and the Bear surfboards at the Longboard Grotto were all shaped by Dennis. I don't own a longboard right now and need one in my quiver so this is a must have. Chris Miller has one that I've ridden and it is a really fun board. It's light, it can turn and it is super fun to (attempt) to nose ride. I'm not known to venture far away from my fish but when I do, this is the board for me. It's almost not fair though, I get entirely to may waves. I almost feel bad while in the line up. ALMOST.
