I am pretty sure that's what you were riding when Zak brought his Hive down. _________________ https://vimeo.com/moontowerco |

Frye, Yep, I thought chris had some photos somewhere. That was a fun day. 1st winch day for me, 1st day hitting a rail. 1st day on a real wakeskate.
Been hooked since. _________________ https://vimeo.com/moontowerco |

You're right that is a Karma it says it right on the bottom. 5 dollars if anyone knows the original owner. _________________ 407-212-7425 |

Kent Kingsford I think? Not 100% sure about his last name. I know his username is kento911. I still have my Pirate Winch bag. _________________ 407-212-7425 |

wakemitch, My dad ordered a winch from him in late '05 & I've been trying to get a refund ever since. Every few years he'll respond with how much he's paying in college loans & other reasons why he can't pay the money back yet, but that he's totally going to some day
Frye, You & Reed look so freaking young in that pic My guess is Justin Dahan for the Karma

I vaguely remembering you telling me you ordered one; I never knew that is what became of it. geez
Not Justin but I believe him and the Karma owner have the same career. _________________ 407-212-7425 |

grouch he's been working his ass off to pay Nick back I hear....
seriously though I have no clue.... Saw him one time a few years ago on the lake kinda in passing.... Haven't heard from him since......
I remember when he was going to build nicks winch... I want to say it was around thattime there was that sketchy contest that had the liquid force pools on top of scaffulting into a bottom pool that was 6 inches deep..... And in a parking lot...... That was super safe.... _________________

PIRATE, That was the Blacktop Brodeo in Ybor City... I can't believe that only one person went to the hospital that day. If you watch the bonus section of In It's Travels, the unidentified swervy drunk goes over the side of the top pool straight to the pavement. My dad was one of the first to get to him, so gnarly Kyle Hyams actually did a sick shuv to boardslide, Aron Gore did a boardslide frontshuv, John Ruark did a shuv indy down the drop, Justin Scott had a few good hits, and I don't remember much else.
I'm constantly finding out that more & more guys that are killing it in wakeskating now were actually there at the Brodeo too... Makes me think we need more am contests in wakeskating (just not in a glass-filled parking lot with 6 inch slip'n'slide pools... I think I know a better place)
