    early or late in the day and you should be fine. This assumes you have $300 italian approach shoes...

    It's very fun though. If you want a partner I'd be happy to run up it one of these afternoons. Haven't been on top of Sup in too long.

    My Italian approach shoes only cost $160. Would I be fine too?

    Wouldn't recommend it, especially if you have children and/or wifey. Only the BEST rubber and front/mid sole construction allowed.

    Maybe you can borrow a pair of Italian approach loafers from Old Larry.

    I agree it is a constitutional right for Americans to be assholes...its just too bad that so many take the opportunity...

    The nice thing about Ferragamos is the sure footed sole with good feedback on varied terrain. Even if you fall it's classy as fuck.

    (Yes, I know the common tribal spelling, but that's not the spelling of the place name.)

    Also, I dig that dude's blog. Had it bookmarked for a while.

    A lot of serious badasses have tried and failed to finish the WURL in under 24 hours. Beastly.

    Just saw this - yeah man! I'm back in the state after some shenanigans, let's do it sometime. Hopefully it'll be cooling off here fairly shortly.

    I also have some fancy schmancy approach shoes...

    Sounds good - let's go for it before the snow starts in earnest. New phone so use PM here to get in touch. Weekday afternoon or weekend morning are my best times.
