Keep an eye out for SOFKA meet ups. It's a group of 10 to 15 from NC, SC, and GA, that meets at various locations in the southeast. I live in Florence, SC which is about 2.5 hours from RDU down I-95. Love to have you join us when and if you can.

I am new to this sport so I didn't think there would be to many people other than the folks on the banks that was doing this. I'm in Gastonia.

yeah I got hooked on this about 2 months ago at Jockey's Ridge. Why is it so addictive?

Not sure. But if you got hooked at Jockeys Ridge then I would have to say the view from the top of the Dunes as you flew. :wee:

Spent the week of Thanksgiving down there. Harddrvie8 had to force me to leave the area to come home. Still begging to go back. Now to just be able to afford a house down there.
