Me, telling John John about a young lady I went surfing with who has gone surfing daily since 2011
I told her she will out surf me one day...I surf at least only thee waves some days. She rides any least 4 rides with an amazing style!
JJ wants to meet her
Jesus Christ people. chill the fvck out. I haven't followed his story and simply questioned the "record" and his motives. I knew I would catch crap, but oh well. Honestly, who goes into a surf session thinking that "I need to catch 3 to the beach?" Dale, you didn't surf on the ASP tour back in the day did you?
All joking aside, Dale, I've never met you. However, you appeared genuine to me after I watched your "streak" video on youtube just now. You came off as a little sad... like it wasn't worth it, considering what you sacrificed.
Hope life is treating you well.

allow me to quote me the Bible of the sport...
On September 2, 1975, inspired by the swell know at the monster from new zealand. Man entered the water on an exterordinatry quest.from that point forward for 20 (40) years of his life ,this man has surfed at least three waves the beach every day. Undeniably ,...every single day for more than 7,000 days now . His goal is to surf every day for a lunar cycle. A lunar cycle lasts 28 lasts..... he dreams of February 29 th ( every 4 years the calender gives us an extra day February 29 th I surfed a decade of leap years 1976 - 2012. )
... he wears out surfboard fins becaus he doesn’t consider a complete wave unlist his fin drags in the sand. He has a number of fins lying around his house.they look like eroded fossils. ....... started surfing in Orange County back in 1957 when mission Viejo was a buffalo farm.
... nicknamed an honorary lake Erie local because of the conditions that no one in their mind would would paddle out outm
- l could go on but you get the idea.

When we were hanging with Duncan on that trip, he referred to what Dale had done as a "meditation," and it was one of the most apt and descriptive terms I could imagine for what Dale has accomplished. I respected what Dale had done already, but that word of Duncan's put it into perspective for me.
Thanks Dale, and PPK and this whole erBB crew for letting me be a part of it all. My family and I won't forget it, ever.

I surfed with Dale on his way down the coast one day and he suggested a little 50yd stretch of sand that gets OK on small days. We traded a few waves for a short while before I headed to work. It was pretty amazing that he called that tiny little stretch of sand. It was about 2-3' faces and only us two, and for sure one of only 2 decent (and maybe even surfable) spots that morning for 15+ miles in either direction. A few minutes drive from where I lived and I probably wouldn't have surfed that morning. Thanks Dale :wave2:
dude, dale phookin rocks!
no erBB butts aboot it!
if this guy's too lazy to read, his loss... shiiiirt, like i said b4... da yutes deeze dayz!
"can somebody give me the cliff notes to what stock means? i'm like, you know, way too busy to actually read about it myself"

you don't deserve the truth!

Honored to have played a small part in this epic event.
This thread is the best example of the ohana we have here on the erBB. Sure, we are a dysfunctional family, but a family nonetheless.
Here's a new one of Dale. "Shaka brah! Everything's cool."

Oh the ironing. I now have ample miles again to get mrs subway and myself to hawaii (and Dale too if he wants to come to Kauai). i guess we're sort of allowed to go? With 72 hour negative test results? we're sticking to florida for T'day and Xmas, simply because family is really important right now. My mom has been enjoying herself as best she can, but she's REALLY bummed out about my sisters trump-o-mania. So this year we will do both holidays with her down in sunny flat florida. But darn if a couple weeks on Kauai wouldn't be perfect for February.
Edited because i just read this entire thread again, start to finish, laughing and happy-crying, then really crying when Surfwordz chimed in on the thread a couple years ago...that's a lot of emotion for a half hour's worth of reading.
