Some "mini airs" 200lbs+

Here are a few fun shots from last week on our Malibu Vride. Can I say, I really want a bigger boat / bigger wake...
After seeing Denish's pics a few months back of the Sanger 237, that boat has been shortlisted...

Also, there might be something to be said for losing some weight :-)

I'm pushing 205lbs...

DJamesz seems to be in the 200lb club like myself :-)

and is boosting big on that nice beefy wake on his cyclone.

Any other 200+ riders that are breaking free from the wake?

Dj JamejZ & Big Brian throwing their weight around. Heading up north for some video& photo sessions at Lake Tulloch and maybe Melones the 1st week in Aug So if your around after the Tulloch contest we will be shooting for our next Film, Big Air's & Barrels Behind a Boat?

I didn't realize that, bro. I could have sworn all of those pictures of you were on Tulloch. Do you trailer from BB down to Tulloch, or am I just confused?

Jerry Price and Chase Hazen, along with Dennis and Mike Armstrong are going to be setting up the Sanger 237's. We should have decent wakes for the contest. If can find the time, we'd love to see you there.

(jdjjamesz) · (jdjjamesz) **Join Date: Mar 2008** 07-18-2008, 5:32 PM

ANY SIZE YOU WANT, CUSTOM PETR

surfdad 07-18-2008, 8:14 PM

jdjjamesz, James is sitting next to me and says thanks for the props.

Chris H, just so you know, the board that James is riding isn't CURRENTLY readily available, the blank alone takes about 6 weeks to create, then it would have to be shaped and glassed. I'd guess a minimum of two months at this point. I think by fall Mike will be able to produce them in a reasonable period of time.

Hey Chris,
Just to clarify, the board that James Walker is riding is an advanced prototype of The James Walker Pro Model from The Walker Project. That model will be introduced at Surf Expo in September and will be available to be pre-booked on September 15. The other Walker Custom models are available currently with about a 3 week delivery time.

Have you ever surfed those rivers out there or the london canal my uncle lives in london says theres awave in the canal jamesz

(hawaj) · (hawaj) **Join Date: Aug 2005** 07-20-2008, 1:00 PM

Nope. You mean that tide wave like Popoporoca on Amazon River or riversurfing on standing wave like in Munchen Germany? I never tried it. I saw only that wave in Germany, its fun.
But we used to go every summer to France to play in waves and check Kelly, C.J. and other dudes during Quicksilver Pro or on our backyard beach waves.
