Hey. What's up?

[NorCalBYUFan]

Shaun became one of my heroes long before my mission. I saw him at the O.P. Pro at Huntington and was somehow fascinated. I studied up on him and he became one of my sporting heroes. I think I've written about the time he invited me to go surfing with him when I was on my mission.

Wow. Well, did you get in the water?
That would have been too much temptation for me. Good thing God knows it and didn't put that in front of me, I would have jumped at the chance.

In his time definitely. Since he retired others have passed him in technical ability. However there is no one who surfs as beautifully as Shaun and it's almost like he becomes one with the wave. He's the very definition of a soul surfer. IMHO if a tow rope and watercraft isn't involved Laird has nothing on him.

Shaun Thompson was the best, unless you want to look at just Big Wavers. Then, Gerry Lopez.

Gerry is one of my favorites. Gerry is one of the big wave pioneers and will always be revered for that, but there are many others I'd put ahead of him. Thomson is a great, but not the best. Both of these guys though were mostly before my time.

Welcome! Good call on Lebowski and Clack. I get those two confused all the time.

[Indy Coug]

If you think you lean towards Lebowski's attitudes, it simply must mean you haven't been here long enough.

Oh Lord, an apostrophe-abusing wealth manager with poor reading comprehension. I think this is BYU71's dupe account.

BWAAAAHAHAHAHA!
Dude, they have medicine you can take to help you deal with other people's inadequacies.
I hear they make it in cream form too.

Personally, I like this reference.

[Surfah]

Wait, this isn't NorCalCat?

Not the NorCalCat if he likes the Lakers. That asshole was a Warriors fan.

[Flystripper]

Not as good as NorCalCat.

Wait, this isn't NorCalCat?

[wuapinmon]

That's what I get for assuming, since you posted to the thread titled A question for the ENGINEERS!

Sweet someone actually agrees with what I say. I should say hella sweet since you're from NorCal.

As for Slater he's God of the ASP. Surfing God for me is Laird.

For those who don't know what we're talking about:
Laird - LINK

Laird was the man, that's for sure. He has some serious kahoonas.
But watching Kelly do those 360 airs, I think he made a deal with the devil. Goosebumps.

Wuap, he called you an engineer. That is the highest compliment one can get. You can just skip the question and declare your friendship.

Wuap, the southern spanish linguistics engineer, and NorCalBYUFan shall be great friends.
