Doors Open

It's been a while since one of us posted, so for those who haven't heard the latest, I thought I'd give a little update. John has Ridin High open for the season and boards are flying out the door. Will and Meredith did an amazing job keeping things going last year while John was out of commission, and as John has recovered, the shop is exactly where he wants to be. He continues his rehab, working with his doctors to overcome and compensate for the areas of his brain that were injured. Fortunately, his ability to help people find the right board for them is just fine. John- wishing you a successful season!

Do you still read this? It has been a long time....

Ever since the first days of cutting out boards from 7-ply maple and painting them up (even though I couldn't paint!), and then moving onto having shop space (with just a notebook for inventory) and rolling out the long runs in B'town with the student shuttle from the waterfront to the top o'the hill (when the skate trail map was just an idea), to ragin' the Viza scooters until the fuzz got them banned...You've always been ridin' high....no matter what obstacles or injuries lay in your path.

Don't ever stop.
You've always lived for your dreams.

It has been a long time healing - and I say Thank You.
