Man that looks fun, do you ever spearfish? I used to do that in freshwater rivers and lakes.

I also ride off road and some Motocross. Here is a small blooper/crash scene from a month ago. I have a ton of these but havent edited them all together yet.

Excuse the language...

I'm on the eastern foot of the Sierra Nevadas so obviously I surf the mountains in the winter. It's getting to be ridiculously expensive anymore though and I go less and less every year.

I'm also an avid Air Race fan. I have been all my life. This year is the 50th Anniversary of the National Championship Air Races (NCAR) and could be the the last. I certainly hope not as it will leave a giant hole in my life and my heart. As with anything completely awesome in this country (land of the lawyer), insurance will price it out of existence.

I also liked to play in the dirt but preferring the water nowadays, less cleaning afterwards.

My main hobby is maintaining my 29 gallon salt water fish tank since I don't have my boat anymore. I currently don't have any new pictures yet. The tank has been running for a little more then a year and a half and I have had great success so far.

My current residence:
2 - Naked Clownfish
1 - Starry Blennie
1 - Diamond Goby
1 - Green Mandarin Goby
1 - Firefish
1 - Golden Coral Banded Shrimp
2 - Emerald Craps
15 (or more) - Red Footed Hermit crabs
2 - Bumblebee snails
5 - Mexican Turbo snails
9 - Asteria snails
1 - Red Bubble Tip anemone
1 - Frogspawn coral
1 - Green/Yellow Torch Coral
1 - Duncan coral
1 - Ring of Fire zoa
1 - Joker zoa
1 - Starfish
and a few other things.

The clownfish are a mated pair and every 21 days, lay a bed of eggs right under their anemone that hosts them.

I had two Firefish about a week ago. One of them died because it was being attacked by the Starry Blennie (this fish should be a friendly one but I must have got the one that attacks other fish )

I also had two Starfish last week, one of them died because of age

I also have some sponges growing but they seem to be doing okay for now. The sponges are there to show first signs of a tank crash

My bro spearfishes, I haven't went out and bought all the stuff to do it. Fish and Game are cracking down on it, making it illegal at alot of beaches.

I also, got out of motocross. It used to be my main sport before wakeboarding. Hanging out on the boat all day beats out at the tracks any day. I was thinking, I literally would wake up, load up, drive an hour to the track, only ride for 2-3 hours then leave when the tracks got blown out, drive home, wash everything. I would spend the same money riding bikes as I would out on the water (We split the gas bill with all the buddies).

Anyway I used to Race here and there. Mostly WORCS races when they were in town. I used to be in 450 B class.
Here's me back in the MX days




One thing Great about Socal, is every extreme sport imaginable is less then a hour aways. Things that SUCK: gas prices, traffic, Registration, our government.

I agree, I will take the boat any day over dirt riding. I just picked it up a few years ago as my winter sport. Motocross/racing is definitely an expensive and time consuming sport. I think I spend more time driving to the tracks/washing/prepping then I do riding. I will ride another month or so then transition over to the boat/lake.

Snowboarding and Skiing are my winter activities. I've had my 2 little ones on skis since they were 2 and I'm always amazed at how quickly they pick it up. I'm also a big race fan, I went to Austin last year for the inaugural race at Circuit of the Americas, with the kids, it was a great time.

[Ewok]

yep, we used to snowboard all the time at MT. Bachelor. With three kids, I'm priced out of the market at $90 a day. So we own a boat and dirtbikes. Funny how a dirtbike is actually cheaper than snowboarding down a hill......oh well

How old are your kids. At Mt Spokane kids under 6 are free for lift tickets and there is a ski swap at the beginning of the season to get the kids into new (used) boots and skis. And a season pass at most of the mountains around me are between 250-450. It's also just a 45 min drive for me to get to the mountain so it's not that expensive per day here.

I am totally addicted to Crossfit. I even started my own. If anyone likes working out or looking to work out should give it a try.
