Heya Ben! how ya been? just got done writin finals & started a new job at a skateboard, snowboard, surf shop & lovin it! so what r u up to for the holidays? ♥NatalieD™
AHHHH I know...I surfed 6" shorey the other day in RI...honestly. 6 inches. i was deperate. yesterday and today were better though at least there was something with tropical storm beryl, in the pouring rain (and i forgot how to ride beach break). i am all for going back to chile, all i can think about are certain waves...i feel your pain. and then i look at photos. then NF5 and mauro's vid. go back in january?? anyway, i am going insane too. hope the surf comes up in california.
Hey let me know if/when u get ur pics and story in the mag! will havta check it out! Just got back from a week out there last night! The Vista Comp was ridiculously HUGE!! 120 competitors, 15 1/2 hours long and I was EXHAUSTED! 5-6 man heats, only 2 runs and both counted! I'm not a big fan of the beach break "bump" so was happy to place 4th. Our Team placed 3rd and I got knocked out in my 3rd heat in DK...there were 14 heats total in DK! It was craziness!! Had a nice 4 hour session sith Paul Roach on Monday morning at BMAX and he came to my younger sisters Birthday session Friday night at Vista. He is so funny! Such a kid at heart!! Heaps fun! So u have any more plans for traveling? ♥Natalie
Hey Ben! Once again! loved the pic! THANX! Life has been so crazy lately! I can't remember wut I told u last! ;P Neway had 12-14 people staying with us for 5-6 nights through the comp weekend last weekend...then i got invited to compete at another comp for this weekend, but left for it last weekend right after the last comp and have been out of state all week!! Last weekend I placed 3rd in female, this weekend I placed 1st in female, 2nd in DK and 2nd in Juniors! It was an awesome comp with lots of awesome sponsors and won about $200.00 cash along with some other cool stuff...i'm liken this!haha! Well I found out this week that I am officially sponsored and a Team Rider for the Cartel Flow Team along with Paul Roach, Eric Apple and Dane Hirata!! So stoked! Also got sponsored by Ghetto Boyz. I'm flyen out to California for almost a week for the Vista comp on July 8...gonna b awesome! Then gonna b riding a 4 hour session with Paul Roach and Eric Apple on the Monday after the Comp! Wow! I just praise God for this time in my life! Even though it is so amazing it is also very humbling aswell and don't want to ever take anything for granted. How has your week gone??? Talk soon--♥Natalie
