Robert August and his son Sam headed to the Outer Banks of Cape Hatteras for REAL Watersport’s Endless Summer Weekend. We had some fun waves all weekend. Everyone had a really great time hanging out on the OBX Beaches.

Sunday Skate Session 5/22
We had a great time hanging out with the crew this Sunday. It was just the locals tonight at the Laughing Gull Bowl. Tommy Brown (age 9!) showed up in full force. This young grom showed most of use up even if he is half our size!

Outer Banks Wakeboarding
The guys and gals took out some of the REAL Slider Park features for a wakeboarding session. It was a beautiful calm evening. Everyone took turns driving and then hitting the sliders until the sun went down.

A Stormy Pamlico Sound
A few smaller storm cells passed over us today. There was nothing like yesterday’s light show, but it was still a great sight to see, especially with a nearly full moon rising over the ocean.

Lightning in Rodanthe, NC
Last night in the Outer Banks of North Carolina I headed out after work to see what the rumbling dark skies had to offer. Mel, Nate Appel and I made our way to the dunes behind the house to post up the gear. The storm came in from the SE and as it did, spider lightning exploded over our heads as the setting sun light up the ominous and rapidly approaching storm for an amazing view!

The Failed Planet Slick Shoot
Right before I left for the Liquid Force Photo Shoot, I was finally able to gather a crew of riders to go shoot in The Planet Slick. I wanted to test out a way in which I could shoot with the crew in a more remote location other than the “REAL” Slick or use of a jetski. I found a great waterproof backpack with enough room for 2 lenses and a body, and so we were on our way. It was 17-19 knots SW when we left mile marker 47. We buzzed downwind to the slick where the guys got off about 2 tricks before the wind started to shut down from a huge front moving in. The wind dropped to 12-14 knots, which made getting back quite laborious. All in all it was a bust for shooting but the concept worked!

Our State: Weather & Waves
Our State Magazine of North Carolina ran a feature on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. They displayed a few of my favorite storm photos from the 2009 November storm. I was very pleased as to how they printed and looked in the magazine! If you picked up a copy, what did you think?
