Dennis taught us how to build wooden surfboards. He put up with our endless questions about how to bend a particular strip of wood, funny little tweeks that give just the right kind of planking tightness, rail designs, stuff that is impossible from just reading.
He was heading to Outer Banks and traveling with his girlfriend, and really sweet Pit Bull (yeah I know...but I must say, this one, a rescue dog, was just really sweet). Dennis said he would like to hook up with us and did, over at OIB Surf Off today. We took him over to Tubbs Inlet from Sunset Beach side for a session. He rode Tom's foam Nose Rider, Tom and I woodies. While the surf wasn't great, we did get some long rides and saw lots of Blues (fish) running under us. Problem was we couldn't see what was chasing them, nor did we really want to see/know what was down there.

Just getting out from session at Tubbs Inlet.
