I know, it’s been awhile since I posted anything on here. This webbuilder isn’t supported any more and I’ve been slow to adopt a new one. But there’s hope I’ll rally something soon. In the mean time, you will find my more recent reports on the Facebook group BoardheadInternational and there are some posts on Instagram under the same name.
“An Innerview”: - Giving interview is risky enough. But interviewing yourself has to be the height of ego.
Going with the wind: - I haven’t even started the “Mega goes ballistic” action figure yet, but the hats and shirts are in.
Rantfest: - Manifestos, screeds, rants, call them what you will.
Portfolio: - Shooting on the fly, the sailor’s perspective

If you are wondering who’s the guy who seems to be Bogarting the coverage in the pages of this allegedly international zine, that’s Dana Miller. AKA: “Mega” “Max Shredroom” and “the Shaman of shred” among a few other tags over the years. During my rather brief racing career, my sail numbers were US2BHI. My best result had to be winning a speed check at Hatteras on my wave gear. During my somewhat longer writing career, I’m grateful to have been published and/or had photos of or by me in American WIndsurfer, New England Windsurfing Journal, Ocean magazine, the OuterBanks Windsurfing Guide, Shredder, Windsport, Windsurfing Magazine, WindTracks and Windsurfing Now. The high point so far though may just have to be my guest editorial stint at WIndTracks during the summer of 1995.
In the way of a mission statement for this project, I’ve always seen this (and now the social media as well,) as a launch pad for something I’d yet to even conceive of. And of course, there’s the desire to get my stuff out there and share some highly curated ideas. This is also a large Mahalo for the efforts of the photographers that come out to shoot and are so stoked to contribute content. And there is also the built in obligation to share in any way you can the luck of living in such a paradise for a windsurfer.
While I hope you will forgive the spotty timing on the reports, I’ll throw down when I can. Especially as I have photos to share. Thank you for giving me a read as well if you do. And for passing the link on to anyone you think might enjoy any of this. And please do feel welcome to send me any thoughts you might have.
With respect and gratitude. ______________________ _\_
