Default Billy Parker/SBC Kiteboard

I grew up looking at surfing mags all the time. The professional surfers that graced the pages always seem so distant to me. The waves too.

Anyways, in the SBC Kiteboard 2008 Fall Issue, there is a 2 page spread on Bill Parker and the St. Petersburg kiteboarding scene. I am so stoked for Bill and what he is all about.

It is a bit surreal that he lives on the same road as I. Yet another reminder that we are where we are supposed to be.

Congrats Bill on all your accomplishments. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

great article. The author, John is actually the editor in chief for SBC so that's kinda cool. Go Bill! Its about time he got some press.

It wasn't exactly on the level of Kevin Kearney or anything because it didn't mention turtles, so in other words, GREAT piece and I am happy for Billy's success!
