I just got the sweetest summer job!
 
I just got hired as the newest coach at real. My stay at real will be from june to november. So I won't be missing any wind. You all are invited and encouraged to come visit me over the summer.

Thanks to everyone who helped me make this possible.

L8r Shawn

Good job man... you going to head back to school afterwords?

E-Bone 05-10-2006 04:33 PM

Cool. Make sure we know how to reach you. I want my kite trip this year to involve flying from Tampa to Norfolk, two hours in the rental car, then charge the Sound. I'm serious. I went to the first season of Real camps so it will good to see Trip and Matt again, anyhow.

When exactly in June are you starting?

shawnwar4586 05-10-2006 05:21 PM

I will be up there the first week of june. I wont become a coach until I go through training, which they cant do until after their comp in june.

Congratulations Shawn.
This is a great achievement and opportunity and I know you will make the best of it. Your character, integrity and abilities are what got you the job so stay focused on your goals, remain positive and don’t waste your time or energy on the haters.

When you need a break from Hatteras you'll have the hospitality and hookup in Texas so come on down.

"No Shawn....You CAN'T use my Glide to hit the sliders"
:lol:
This has been a huge month of news/happenings/progress for the kiters of the Tampa Bay area, wouldn't you say?

Congrats Big Shawn!!!!

Congrats Shawn!!! As Kev, E-Bone, Eagle and Steve already said, we couldn't have asked for a better string of good things to happen to our locals!!! We are all very proud of your accomplishment and can't wait to hear your stories when you return.

Shawn, I will be up in Hatteras from June 17th to the 25th so you can show me all of the best spots in town!!!

Once again, great job and good luck this summer bud!!!

shawnwar4586 05-11-2006 06:21 PM

You guys will still be able to reach me on the forum. I hope to see more than just E Bone and Toby this summer.

JoshTaylor 05-11-2006 06:45 PM

Optionryder420 05-11-2006 10:11 PM

Yeah, let me know how the wind is, and where to stay... I plan on coming up after the summer semester is over. Don't know where I'm staying, don't know where to ride... most likely will be tent camping though.

shawnwar4586 05-12-2006 01:04 AM

Thats cool kev. It would just be nice to see some familar faces up there every once and a while. If you guys tell me when you are comming up I will find you a place to stay and what not. That goes for anybody from this area. I know ive had my diferances with some of you guys but hey we all do. So to anybody from this area thinking of hitting hatteras to escape the no wind summers here I will still be reachable on this forum. So hit me up while im there.

Stevil Kenevil 05-12-2006 06:50 AM

Thats very sportsmanlike of you Shawn!!!

toby wilson 05-12-2006 08:08 AM

That's what kiting is all about, bros and sissies!!! Lets try and turn it back into what it used to be, a bunch of guys and gals who all get along because we are all in love with the same person...Windy!!!

OneEyedwilly 05-27-2006 09:29 AM

What is REAL??
 
Is this some sort of school??

shawnwar4586 05-27-2006 12:14 PM

One eye go to www.realkiteboarding.com and look at their 3 day camps if you really want to learn right now. If you take one of their 3 day camps dont worry about buying a trainer thats what the whole first day is about.

shawnwar4586 05-27-2006 12:15 PM

By the way I leave wed guys. :( :D :( :D :( :D

E-Bone 05-27-2006 01:24 PM

See ya, S, and maybe I will charge OBX and hang with you this summer. I am still up in the air on my travel plans. Here's to hoping you have a lot of good SW this summer.

C. Moore 05-27-2006 08:28 PM
