Z.I.P. Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 So tell me Surfer, if I fly in from the North Shore of O'ahu to the North Shore of Ohio, should I bring with me the Buffalo Keaulana koa longboard, or the 7' Kelly Slater ripper? Or am I going to be competing in the lineup with ice fishermen? Zip in Paradise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Zip Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Why you have to do that Z.I.P -- why you have to blow out our candle to make yours burn brighter? It's bitter cold here this week -- bring your hacksaw to cut a hole in the ice on the lake. For what it's worth -- if your coming I'll buy you one of those gold sixth man t-shirts.
