10 .07pm Wednesday here now …there may be decent conditions tomorrow morning …goodnight ! …

Holy Carp!

Good on ya Ben.

And good on you for keeping it fun and interesting.

Don’t go getting serious on us now.

Chipper - in 2 years you’ve managed to accumulate a full 6.4% of all posts on the Sways General Discussion. (7796 out of 121,962). Since the forum had a sizeable head start on you, that’s no easy task.

I think you need to set a personal goal. As I see it, you have 2 choices. One, by this time next year, be over 10%. At your rate, its doable.

Or two, get under 5% by surfing more. You are one of the very few on here who actually can walk to surf…you owe it to all of us and to atmospheric carbon to do just that as much as possible. Yes, even in the dark. Just walk across the road, thinking, “This one’s for Hafte in Utah…this one’s for Wildy in Colorado…this one’s for Johan in Montreal…”

Either way, it’ll be fun :slight_smile:

As one of the people on Benny’s little list, who is dreaming of a way to be able live a walk away from surf, I have to agree, take as much advantage of it as you can!!

Though of course, your presence here is always enjoyed Chipfish!

Catch a good one for me chip!!

And, yeah Benny. Part of my lifestyle idea is to contribute as little as possible to atmospheric carbon… and the whole ‘rat race’ in general.

“Carp-e diem”…

cheers people !

“this one’s for Wildy in Colorado”

actually , he is surfing as much as me , now he’s living in SAN DIEGO and … … for a living !!

and what better way to celebrate chip’s rise to carpdome than with a photo…

and a photo taken by none other than Chipfish himself…

chip sent this to ma a few weeks back, a photo of one of my sons he shot 8 years ago,… I couldnt believe it…

he remembered the shot and put 2 X 2 together and sent it to me out of the blue thanks a million chip,…I dont have too many pics of the kids surfing back then …too busy surfing with em.

going walkabout soon chip… might even get to see if you and hicksie are not just a figment of our imaginations!
