I'm looking, Heard that it might take away from being out on the water. But I need the cash to be out ther in the first place.

It does take away time, and then you're stuck thinking about the thing you can't do all day.

used to be proshop and sales, not anymore..parts of me miss it, parts of me are glad im out..

riding/lake time was down big time, but fun events/shows were always a good time, its a give/take..

I do, work in design. Working with Pro-riders on a new concept is a whole lot more fun than designing washing machines I can tell you that.

I did it for 4 years and realized I had to quit if I actually wanted to use my boat.

In it, to make your bus. work you have to work all summer and on weekends, nature of the beast. But it's def. got it's perks. I ride on the week days and get to take a diff. boat out all the time and try whatever board I want. But litterally worked 70-80 hrs per week all last summer, riding had to take a back seat.
