Cabo Contest Kicks off the Season




Just got back from Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. What a great trip it was. I ended up placing 6th in the event, but had more fun catching the late evening glass off sessions in front of our hotel with my fellow Exile riders.




If you've a skimboarder and never been to Cabo, you have to slap some sense into yourself and get down there. Cabo is a skimboarder's paradise. It's so fun that I'll be heading back there in a month. See you down there.
