Comment on Peyote Races With The Big Boys by Randy Unsbee, ABC

Randy Unsbee, ABC — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 10:17:40 +0000

Have loved watching the Peyote at PIR over the years while I’ve been racing in ITA and SSC and heading up marketing, PR and publishing. Took a little break this summer to finish my Masters in Online Communication, so maybe I can get back on the track next season By the way, I love Kona but haven’t made it to Maui yet.

Hey Bill,

It seems like you have your finger on the pulse of the SUP industry. Wonder if you have a few moments to talk? Yes, I am the John of SUAN of SUPZone. If that didn’t start a conversation, I don’t know what will.

Коллеги , подскажите , кто знает или сталкивался.

Есть желание приобрести подвеску с бриллиантом массой более карата, но осознаю, что это стоит безумных денег и мне не по карману.

Но читала , что есть облагороженные бриллианты, которые ничем не отличаются от обычных, но стоят дешевле в

три раза.

Кто-нибудь вообще держал такие в руках, они правда прекрасны ?

Enjoyed the video of Peyote and the Big Boys. I owned and raced Peyote back in the ’60′s.

Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here.

Comment on Hobie Trimaran Kayak by Bill Babcock

Sure, it’s pretty simple. the sail is unfurled by slacking the line securing the roller on the bottom of the sail and pulling out on the outhaul, which is the rope attached to the edge of the sail. To furl the sail you pull on the rope that is wound around the spool on the bottom of the sail. You should adjust the rope so that it can completely furl the sail and have about a turn left on the spool. Then when you un-cleat the line to the spool and extend the sail by pulling on the outhaul, the spool will fill with enough line to enable it to be wound to any degree.

Seriously though, this is very basic stuff, you’d be wise to get someone who knows how to sail a dingy to teach you the ropes of sailing. It will make everything much easier.

Hi,
I just bought an adventure island hobie kayak but i am having trouble attaching lines to the mast for furling and unfurling. Truth is I don’t know what I am doing and the instructions that came with it are vague. Can you walk me through line attachment to mast and sail?
thanks

This is a great article. Really great. I once did something when I was 21 that people remark about to me even now at 60. But I can’t even relate. That 21 yr old was tough. Most 21 yr olds are tough and adventurous. But this 60 yr old isn’t even close to that person anymore. Not the same body or mind. Plus I don’t want to be attached to something I did so long ago. I think the thrust of this site is so positive thinking about what you’re going to do today. The past dies immediately like the track of a wave that has just been ridden. There’s only this moment… and then it’s gone. Yes absolutely. Who cares?

dave,
your right, who cares! sup has made lots of people stoked, and thats what really matters, we need more stoke and aloha. Also, we met in Magnolia at your wedding. I was the bartender servering you pinot grigio on the rocks and the others cold coronas. It was a good time. I plan on paddling the molokia this year in the prone paddling class and would love some advice and also have some questions for you. Keep inspiring.

Dave – great post. I have a Harper’s Weekly Magazine from 1874 with an illustration of an “Indian Canoe Race” – the competitors are standing in their canoes, paddling. Islanders and inlanders alike have been doing it for longer than anyone claiming they invented it…

It’s important to respect the sport’s history and origin(s), AND it’s important to celebrate and thank those who, in the modern era, promote it and make it accessible to all comers. So even though you don’t get a prize, at least take a “thank you” for helping SUP get to where it is today.
Josh

If there are people who care or are complaining about who started the SUP industry, no one is listening. >:)

I think of it more in Jared “Guns, Germs and Steel” Diamond terms: the pieces were always lying around, but there had to be a couple of catalytic events. What I’d fling into the mix here is that EPS/epoxy construction and cheap carbon fiber made it possible for people who weren’t muscled-out Daves or Lairds just to lug the stuff off the board racks and onto the beach. That seems huge to me. Little five-foot-nothing yoga instructor women in Topanga or Kailua can get involved without tearing a hamstring. Another thing that comes to mind is that prone surfing has become, historically speaking, really hostile to newcomers — how many naive, trusting, starry-eyed enthusiasts have bought their first longboard, paddled out at Surfrider, and promptly been kicked in the teeth by Joe Local McAggronar? And SUP just glides you right around that — paddle out at some nothin’ beach break or some flat lagoon, and you’re having a great time without having to pay all those up-front dues of pain and humiliation and initiation, and you can ease into the whole scene and progress at your own pace. For sure, there’s the evangelism — Laird’s actually given me pointers at Little Dume, which is really kind of awesome, and you, Dave, are outrageously accessible and helpful here and at your Kamp (I wanna go sometime…) So, like everything else, people are looking for a Messiah narrative, the Promethean who brings fire to mortals, blah blah. The facts are always muddier, more subtle, with way more than enough credit to go around.

Just my two cents…

Unfortunately, I’m not that familiar with the situation.
