  1. "If your being sarcastic I'll take it." . No, not at all! Really!! I love this footage. It conveys the feeling of night riding powder beautifully. Much more interesting to me than endless laid out carves on wide open hero groom. And for what it's worth, I've been a (documentary) television producer for almost 50 years. Well done! BB
  2. Really exciting footage! Thank you!! BB
  3. Plus one on a Targhee side trip or even a couple of days. It's an easy shuttle drive from Jackson Hole, but if I remember correctly the route involves a summit pass that's subject to occasional closures (?) Twenty plus years ago, Jackson Hole steeps handed me my (then) intermediate derriere. Of the "out west" carving areas I've visited - Tahoe, Jackson Hole, Aspen/Snowmass - the Targhee experience is near the top of my list. Enjoy!! BB
  4. Uggh! http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2016/03/08/science/ap-us-sci-warm-winter.html
  5. This level of Drive, Guts, and Athleticism is beyond my comprehension! Salud, Softboot :biggthump
  6. The Eddie! It's happening today at Waimea... first time since 2009!! BB
  7. often cited on the Forum?? Have tried a search, but I must be doing it wrong. Many Thanks BB
  8. Starting at 02:20 - guys surviving backwash! Phenomenal!! :eek: cheers, Softboot!!
  9. Sony A6000 replacement rumored for March delivery. It will be called the A6100. BB
  10. from Possum Pouch - where we're supposed to have our warmest Xmas Eve on record - 77 F deg. So Mele Kalikimaka to all and to all a white night... BB
  11. Take a look at the Sony a6000 with the compact 16-50 mm zoom lens (24-75 35mm equivalent). I haven't used it, but based on reviews I'd buy it in a heartbeat at the 500-600 $US current prices. The successor a6100 (?) rumored coming out early next year so prices may go even lower. cheers! BB
  12. On YouTube, Joel Tudor's 'Ductumentary' - most beautiful longboarding ever! Cowabunga!! BB
  13. Thanks to all. Sounds like I'll stick with USPS and allow plenty of lead time for my mailings. Again, many thanks BB
  14. Anyone able to comment on the likely delivery time of a First Class business envelope from U.S., 27606, to Langley, BC, V3A8B3 ? I was blown away by the cost of the various "expedited service" options, so I opted to gamble on standard 1st class. Need to do this on a semi-regular basis, so I'd like to get a feel for ballpark delivery window. The "varies by destination" disclaimer by our Postal Service isn't helpful. Any speculation appreciated :biggthump BB
  15. Amazing contrast between the 40's Hermosa Beach "plank" flick and Laird's online foil video!! How did we get from there to here in just seven decades?!! What a long, sweet "ride" it's been! The only constant is the waves... Thanks for the posts!! BB :biggthump .
  16. Cowabunga! Beach volleyball and a female Paipo boarder!! BB
  17. Slurpee waves on Nantuckett! Brrrrrr ... http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/28/science/nantucket-frozen-waves.html?hpw&rref=science&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&module=well-region&region=bottom-well&WT.nav=bottom-well

  21. +1 on Ooma. We've used it for a couple of years with complete satisfaction! BB
  22. http://www.catchsurf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Jamie-OBrien-Catch-Surf-Odysea-LOG-Wedge-Hurricane-Marie-580x373.jpg The "mean old, dirty old Wedge" attracts the usual swell and the usual gaggle of Hellmen and gawkers. BB :eek:
