Hi Matt, I am back in the water after two and a half weeks in dry dock. Malibu was fine this AM with a bit of offshore wind and some sets in the head high range. I have not seen Flo in a while. Was wondering if he is still in So. Cal. Sounds like he is still around. Come south, we could find a couple with your name on 'em. Roger

not sure if he is still around or not-that’s what i hope to find out.yeah, finally some clean am surf here today-god it’s been terrible.Roger- good to hear you are back in action! look for me down that way come mid july!later… Matt

Roger… great news! What was your injured arm`s diagnosis?

hey guys, I’m still landlocked in germany. haven’t surfed for about four weeks! I’m trying to stay in shape paddling an old beater in the river - against the stream. also got some swim fins and swimming in the lakes here a lot. I miss riding my Simmons! Aloha, flo

Dale, The doctor called it tendenditis. He zeroed in on it in an instant. He (Dr. Mellman) is a sports doctor and is the team doctor for the LA Dodgers and some of the other pro sports teams. He is also a surfer and a swimmer. He advised some meds and to get back in the water as long as it does not get worse with the paddleing. It seems to get a little sore after an hour or so of paddleing, but the next morning it is ok. I been putting ice on it and I would say it is about 90% there. It is good to be back in the water.
