How did you get in to SUP?
Teiva started a while ago, around 2003-4 and I played around with him, we went tandem a few times, and then later, when we moved to Tahiti I became addicted and was out paddling, just "cruising" longer distances in the lagoon. Only recently have I been doing it more in the waves...

What are your goals for 2009?
To keep being happy, surrounded by loving people- the other stuff will follow if it's supposed to...

"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success."

-Ralph Waldo Emerson
