Just went to Performance Ski n Surf where I shipped two of the three boards. Here's what's up with them. Chris Waters, St. Petersburg FL, you are getting the 135. I have emailed you, but that was just this morning. Hope you are home to receive it. Greg Gifford, in Naples, you are getting the 140. Should have them pretty soon. In the boxes are notebooks in a big ziplock baggy taped to the inside of the box. The board is in a sub6 box which is inside a normal board box. Do your best to take care of the whole setup. The 140 is waiting at Performance for Dave from Apopka to pick it up.
Here's a story to start the whole thing off. I wanted to be the first one to ride each board so I took them out yesterday for a quick rip. I have been on the 135 for a while and made for a little change getting on the 140 but quickly got used to it. What I wasn't used to was the extra speed it carried as I whipped in to my dock and literally whipped into my dock. I have done this before but something caused a huge brain fart and I tried to stop myself with my hands from colliding with the dock and that wasn't enough so the tip of the board caught the 6x6 and kinda broke the tip. yeah, great start. Nice move Murray, can't even ride your own board. How do you expect others to not damage it. Please don't be an idiot like I was. The board isn't too bad and is fine to ride, just wanted a new one on the road, so I replaced it. I think I forgot to put fins in the 145, but i think its fine without fins.
The boards will have 1 or 2 more stops in Florida and then up to GA. I'm thinking from there to AL, and then TN? Bunch of requests from TX, CA, MI, MN etc... so I will do my best to spread the love.
thanks again everyone for checking in and keepin the idea alive.
Shaun

Shaun, glad to see you threw the MN up in the bunch of requests list! Cant wait for the lakes to thaw and possibly get the board up here. Question though? How long do these people keep the boards, and most importantly, how do they know who to send it to next and whomever it is getting sent to, how do they know the board is on its way to them? Hopefully we can get it up here in MN sometime and if its in my area, or i get it, i will volunteer my boat for its use!

Not sure I know how this all started but if you would like the 145 to visit Canada, I can help you out. There is still 12" of ice on my lake so if it got here for the beginning of June (or later but before October) that would be great. Are there some rules to this? I will remember to watch out for the my dock. Email me if I have missed the intent of this thread. Thanks.
