My dad turned me on to wave riding. I started on a Morey Boogie Mach 7+7 that my dad won in an ESA contest. I used to skim board but now just stick to bodyboarding.  Started in Cape Hatteras and Ocean City but my favorite spots now are in Puerto Rico.

Born and raised in San Diego, CA.  Dad taught me how to surf at around age 8. I surfed all the way through High School until I left for school at JMU in Harrisonburg, VA.  I would return home often and surf breaks like Black's Beach and the reefs in Point Loma during Summer, Xmas, and Spring breaks.  After college, I moved to DC, and after buying a board out here, began surfing Ocean City, MD, Assateague, and Hatteras on a regular basis. Basically, when the waves are up, and the winds are right, I am going no matter what.

I am trying to find a way to get some folks together to go exploring some of the barrier islands off Chincoteague for a little surf adventure! Anybody got a boat?

Just got some new rubber, and am pumped for some cold water surfing!

Surf History: Chris and Neal Carver go way back as kids growing up in Calvert County. "He was with with me on many of the surf adventures I took in the VW camper. He was one of the guys that was with me during that trek to the "Wedge" many moons ago.  Chris and I didn't know it even had a name back then."

Likes pits and shallow reefs.  Formerly from New England, Dan has lived and surfed in San Diego for about 5 years.  Also an avid climber, hiker and camper.

After a six month tour in Baltimore (Sept 02-Mar 03), Dan is back home in San Diego.  Dan's Dear John Letter to the ASC.

Started surfing as a 12 year old in PR. Surfed intensively until 25, shaped boards to support my traveling. Moved to Michigan a few years to work on my PhD, lack of surfing during that period left me with an urge to surf that I will never be able to get rid of. Lived several years in Northern CA, and rode Santa Cruz often. I now work as a scientist for the USDA in Beltsville, Md. I like to travel and have ridden Costa Rica many times, the Canary Islands, Hawaii, France, Brazil as well as several other places. I like Asseateague locally and Hatteras. My best surf ever has been in Roca Bruja CR, Pavones CR, Las Palmeras in the Canary Islands, and Wildo PR. I also enjoy windsurfing, skiing, cooking, scuba, homebrewing, reading.

30 years old. Born and grew up in Long Island, NY. Learned to surf as a kid, but moved inland after college and became a once a month warrior. Moved to O'ahu in 1999 to surf. Back to the mainland to have a real job in 2002. Have surfed in NY, CA, FL, SC, NC, MD, DE, Hawaii, and Costa Rica. Prefer long walled-up rights and reef breaks. stoked to be surfing again.

Mike moved back to Oahu in May 2002.

Muffin moved back to Tampa, FL during the winter of 2002-03.  He just didn't want to stay for our record breaking snow.

Rod's Note to the ASC Listserv:

<>PanamASolas spirit of fun and challenge as the biggest party animal, as symbolized by the memorable imbibing of rum and warm strawberry soda. 

There's also a special story that goes with this pic.
