fun stuff.. ha

At an spot such as Chopes, whats is the determining factors (Other than size alone) for you to Tow-In instead of paddle in?
from: Eric
it just has to look pretty damn big and when it gets big enough to tow, it is really hard to make any of the drops... so once it gets to a solid size you can tell pretty easy which waves you could paddle and which you would have to tow..

Whats your favorite thing to do when your not surfing?
from: Scott
i love to go snowboarding

are you stoked to compete in the contest scene or do you just see it as a way to the top?
from: Greenwood
i have always been competitive, so i do enjoy it... but i enjoy going out and finding really good waves just as much.. because some times the comps can get pretty repetitive... like right now I'm on Oahu for a pipe event and it is really flat!

Rumor has it you like to snowboard? How is that? Do you complain about how cold it is all the time like we do?
from: Tricia Byrnes
Snowboarding is sick, like learning to surf again... I don't really ever complain.. I'm always stoked to be there... It's a change of scenery for me... From blue to white! Its my favorite thing to do when i'm not surfing... But as sick as it is, nothing beats a sick barrel you think your not going to make and you do...

Favorite Life Moment?
from: Tricia Byrnes
The whole package... It's all good..

If you could have one superhuman power what would it be?
from: Tricia Byrnes
Be able to slam revolving doors!

How scary is it dropping into to 50+ foot waves?
from: Tricia Byrnes
As scary as the movie "the ring"

What do you do in between your heats on contest days?
from: Tricia Byrnes
Sit ups... Ha ... Nah I just cruise and wait for the next heat...

What is your Favorite event of the year?
from: Tricia Byrnes
Vegas on new years... And the Menehune Mayhem we have on Maui.
