Hey Hedon Surfers...
Flynn is taking a poll of all the surf team members to see if we want to stay together, and as part of Hedonistic Isle. Let him know (or me for that matter) what you would like to do.
It would be so cool to get a tight group and hang out instead of just share a tag. Oh well... what ever you all want :P

From Malcolm and Emme's Wedding
Oh I give up! I have been trying to post these since the wedding and that was weeks ago. Appparently Blogger hates me as much as SL does. I give you these for now and I will throw more up as I can.
These are way too late - but better late then never. I will try to not post the same pics Keala has...
OMG Can you believe Flynn in pants????

Competitors, you’ll get your rashguards and rules dropped to you before the event… and the surfboards will be provided for you on the day. Mainly, remember to read through the surf ettiquette post by Mal… the judges will be cracking down more on surfers who drop into waves. Basically, if the judges see two surfers on the same wave, both competitors might receive deductions against their score. So, be gracious and take turns on the wave, in order. Everybody should line up on the same side of the wave (the right side, if you’re standing on the beach and looking out to the waves). Take turns… one surfer per wave, please.
Woot. See ya on Saturday!
Meaning that I am wearing black. Saves me the trouble of trying to coordinate a bikini :)

Surfing Etiquette
I have it on good authority that the following was written by Malcom Sydney:
With surfing growing exponentially in SL, here are a few words about surfing etiquette.
~ The Line Up ~
As with all things in life, we will need to line up to catch a wave. If there is no line up then, the wave is all yours. However, if there are people waiting for a wave, please go to the back of the line. Jumping the queue is never a nice thing to do and will cause hurt feelings, bad vibes and frustrate others. As always, we get perfect waves in SL, so use your mini-map to check that someone else is not waiting for a wave on the other side of it before you hop on to it.
~ Paddling in ~
When you paddle out, use the channels on either side of the wave… meaning, don’t paddling out directly into the wave, ’cause most likely another surfer is going to be surfing towards you on the wave and you’ll bump into him/her. So, pick a side, any side, and paddle out to the wave avoiding the other surfers.
~ Catching Waves ~
When catching a wave, the surfer closest to the wave has the right of way. When in doubt ask the person if they are going to catch the wave. If you are the closest surfer to the wave and decide not to catch the wave, tell others ahead of time so they can enjoy the wave.
~ The Drop-In ~
The drop-in is the worst thing one surfer can do to another. If someone is already in a wave or paddle for a wave, don’t try to catch the same wave (the drop-in). This is not cool. Two people on the same wave is not fun when you are not playing bumper surfing.
~ Party Waves ~
If you are surfing with friends, then whatever, have a party. Party waves are for all to enjoy. 2+ people on a wave can be a very fun time for everyone, especially when you are playing bumper surfing. Just tell everyone the wave you are catching is a party wave or you may accidentially drop-in on another surfer.
Enjoy the waves and respect other’s enjoyment…. and have fun!

Flynn's Wake
So Phalen sends out a Beach party invite for last night, inviting everyone to say goodbye to Surf God (or was it Beach God? doesn't matter) Flynn Sheridan.
After Flynn and I stopped rolling on the ground, laughing our asses off (sometimes ROFLMAO is appropriate) we picked ourselves up, massaged our sore bellies, and Flynn sent out a reply that he in fact is only a minor deity (I snorted milk out my nose at that) and informed who ever cared that the Irish (of which Flynn is, as if you couldn't already tell, Duh!) only celebrate someone when they are dead! Thanks, but no thanks.
Well, there is no stopping Bad Boy Phelan James (as he refers to himself, I'm laughing again) when he makes up his mind. And Flynn and I never turn down a good party - and the Kahuna Beach parties are the best, with the BEST people around. So Flynn graciously allowed himself to be the guest of honor and the main excuse for the gathering. Gee Phelan, what's your excuse going to be next week? Just kidding, I love you man!
We had sooooo much fun, and I had so many chats and IMs open that I did not take one picture! I know! I can't believe it either. Let's see if I can remember who was there... Keala and Mal were there the whole time. Req popped in a danced for awhile (and spent too much time AFK - I am pushing you in the water next time bro!), SamyJo and Frankie... hmmm who else? people I hadn't met before... Blue. Geez I should pull up my chat log and see... cuz I am being muddle-brained right now. You know who was missing? Tabby! Poor girl is finishing up her semester and missed the party invite. I forgive you sweetie! We all missed you! And we stayed until the bitter end, slow dancing the night away - I knew those poseballs were a good investment! - with Phelan and Bailey. I don't ask questions. (Honestly it was so cute. Bad boy, my ass!)
And I swear to gawd, I was planning to log off and go to bed. Had to check out 1 thing - famous last words, right? Then, Flynn TP's me to the most awesome surf spot - West of Ireland! Who knew? Pulled my board out right them and there and rode the waves. LOL, didn't even bother changing clothes. Out there in my jeans. At least I was barefoot, but then I am always barefoot. **shrugs**
Went skydiving.
They had one of those pods hidden in the rocks. Kind of fun, first time I forgot the parachute - so i free-fell alllllll-- the -- waaaaayyyyy -- doooowwwwwnnn. Hee hee, thank god you can't actually break anything in SL.
Flew around the area a bit to see what the Irish are up to. Looks like a fun place to hang... i will definitely have to stop back again. And Keala has a Namiko shop there. Well of course she does! If a spot has waves, Namiko has a shop. I love you sweetie! Seriously Keala is a great person. And I want those shortie board shorts!
I think I have blathered on long enough now and should get back to work. ;)
C'ya at the beach!
