Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them-a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill. - Muhammad Ali

Talent in cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work.

Thanks Rainbowgirl......
Its cool....the thread looks great....
Now I want to see who know's their stuff....
Any camp for free at sjvsc, simply tell me the name of this peak, and what the middle names are of Chelsea Johnson 13'11" @UCLA, Taylor Starkey @NM-sjvsc, Shayla Balentine 13'8" @ SDSU.......
How about it everybody? I'll consider any guesses.....
So far I have given only one clue: The peak is not in Alaska.
To win the prize, you must list your progression with your guess.
Where the heck is Neovaulter?

dude . . . surf is BIG right now, but no where to go. At least outside my backyard. the pier may be behaving otherwise.

Urbana was really cool. They've got the all star set up, and Bryan hooked us up with the bomb tour. We should have some cool footage for the next DVD.

so you got some old ringer to come in and break my Cuesta school record huh? Does Dean still have JC eligibility or something?

about the MT. PEak thing . . . I have no idea.

I look forward to jumping in your uard again. something about that place puts me in the zone.

Yea! Gill is awsome. I was there about the week before you.
What a great facility!!!! They are so fun to work with.
We are just putting the finishing touches on a 6 year poles project that is gonna really help the sport.
Clay just got back from the rock, he said it was head high plus.
Plus, the big spiders were out for the first time tonight. Sooooo it means winter is just around the corner, and that means surfing at Drakes.
Did you look at the Ranch trip under the surfing button at skyjumpers.com? That was at Cojo.
Drakes is even better ya got to go with us this winter!
E Boxley is in town tomorrow- recuriting some of my guys. Were taking him for some rock in the morning.
