      The part that should most intrigue... Is knowing "da BU" why would you not bring your own KinEGrines (grubs) + h20 so your not loosing time on the road and focus an all day at the beach.../they bought the boards --fuel for your machine (is always first mention) The most unmentioned-underrated is conditioning.
      The right of passage is not the wave, but the constant vigilance of preparedness .
