I’ve decided to start adding social media content from people in the community.  It’s easy enough to to snag images from the web that people are already posting. It’s also a fun way for you to keep up with some of the cool content people are posting in a summarized way. I might also add my comments here about the stuff people are posting.

First I’m going to start with Captain Brandon Fraley’s post about scalloping.  This is actually really cool to hear that Pasco county is now allowing people to scallop. I’ve heard that even as far south as Pinellas in the anclote area we have scallops, although scalloping is not allowed here.  Pasco county borders Pinellas and it’s just a hop, skip and a jump north of Honeymoon Island and Clearwater Beach, our local surf spot.

Landon Perrino posted a thoughtful picture of Tanner Jones wishing him the best with his injury. What I heard from Landon, something you’ll see in the comments, Tanner actually broke his collar bone while trying a board transfer. Injuries are no fun, especially as we gear up for the peak of the hurricane season and the start of winter.

The skim sisters Maddy and Lilly were hanging out on the east coast at a legendary skim spot, Vilano Beach.  There was a pretty rad skim contest going down there.  They were hanging out with the legendary and most gnarly skimboarder who does the gnarliest spin tricks, and originated from the gulf, John Akerman. They were having a blast on the east coast. Skim Sisters & John Akerman wrote:
