Wake Pros on the Flowrider

Posted on May 26th, 2007 by Michele : Courage & Love Michele
We just happened to be in Orlando to try out the Flowrider at Adrenalina in mall. We were surprised to see Wakeboard Pros Parks Bonifay, Shane Bonifay, Daniel Watkins and Brett Eisenhauer show up for two sessions. Thought you might like to see them in an entirely different water form. The girl you see in the video works at the Adrenalina shop, she rides this thing every day and she totally rips!!

Board Wax Art

Posted on Apr 6th, 2007 by Michele : Courage & Love Michele
Wax
Found this on a few sites, just wanted you to see the technique … bet you never realized that waxing a board could be so artistic. Love the retro boards on these blogs.

“Pretty easy, actually. I didn’t have basecoat, so I just used warm water wax to draw the initial lines. Works fine up here cuz the water’s so dang cold. Then, I just very lightly rubbed the flat part of the bar over the whole deck in circles. It really only sticks to the lines, mostly and leaves small traction bumps between. Get ARTSY!” - Sissy Fish Blog

James and Tony

Posted on Mar 3rd, 2007 by Michele : Courage & Love Michele
James
Owning a surf shop (with your whole family) is really amazing. Not only being near the boards, the beach, the whole vibe that fills the shop everyday ... that's enough to make you happy to go to work ... but there's more. The people. We have friends we've made via Coastal Surf and Ski, wonderful, quality, humble, stoked, adventurous, FUN people.

Tony ... we love you ... his spirit is so beautiful, his love of people, his respect for the earth, his passion for surfing, his total stoke. James is pictured here in the Arctic hanging out from the ship he’s been traveling on, filming the amazing beauty all around. We can only imagine what this felt like … we’re counting on you bro to tell us everything!!

We're not only about Surfing, we're a full-on Wakeboarding shop and we're big into longboard skateboarding and Skimboarding. You have to understand, this is a lifestyle, these are passions and when you have the privelege to share a passion with someone it's just SO energizing. Anyway, my message today is go visit your local Surf Shop and/or Wakeboard Shop and pick up the Vibe, and bring some of yours to share as well.

More stuff on the Coastal Blog! And of course our site!

Turning 50!

Posted on Mar 3rd, 2007 by Michele : Courage & Love Michele

Everyone gathered at my youngest son's house for a carrot cake and tacos. Nikki, my 3 year old granddaughter was so excited, she decorated the cake, opened my gifts for me and was utterly joyful about the whole evening. It was a fantastic night.

This morning, I woke up early to drive to a business meeting and as I was grabbing my coffee for the road and  I looked down at the gifts and cards on the kitchen table from the night before. I was struck, for a moment I just stared at the table .... at the greatest gift in the world!

Gratefulness overflowed, I was given the most coveted, meaningful, perfect gift anyone, anywhere could ever want. On 4 different cards, laying open on the table I saw "I love you mom/grandma" ...... and I know they really mean it.

The rest of my life is the icing, that's just awesome isn't it.
