Ascanio in Cape Town
Ascanio D' Ascanio is making his dreams come true, and it's best described in his own words.
"-Finally, I made it! For the first time of my life I'm writing you from Cape Town. I've been dreaming of this place for so many years. During the last 3 years I tried to make it down here but there was always something going wrong: Budget, family and so on, but finally this year things fell into place. So after spring on Maui for 2 ½ months a summer in The Gorge for 2 ½ months, fall in Brazil for 2 months an now winter in South Africa all in the same year I ´m stoked to say the least."

Flykatcher
Kai "Flykatcher" Katchadourian let's us in on some of his thoughts:
"-It was a December to remember as the crowds thinned out and the Simmer local crew have been holding it down, Natty G, Rudy C, Francisco P, Freddy S, Keith T, Jason D and the Flykatcher all getting their share...good times...wondering a lot of sessions "where is everybody" though, not that it matters really!!! A few select days on the Westside as well scoring some rare spots that fire on big west swells. It was truly an honor to get to sail in front of Hoyle Schweitzer's house last month, Matt spotted Cooper and I checking this spot near his house and brought us over to launch and sail the break up from his house, it was down the line head high and 4.7, we then took the time to thank Hoyle for his great invention - its changed many, many lives around the world, I think that he was pretty stoked to see the fire still burns brightly in many sailors hearts. Here in Finland now, stationed and geared up...awaiting the C
