The team from Angulo concluded the 2011 Surf Expo and was very stoked for the upcoming season. We found some awesome new distributors and met a ton of great to be customers. One of the customers turns out to be one of the nicest and well informed guys we have ever met in the world of surfing! Here’s the story…

Angulo had left us with an extra day just to hang in Florida and possibly get some paddling in with a new dealer or friend, well we met that guy the second day of the show. Jim is from Central Florida, paddles & surfs nearly everyday. He was so gracious to invite us to his home which served as a way for us to deliver his new 12’0 Dawg, and to get in an awesome afternoon of paddling. This was only the beginning, as we drove to his home we had no idea that Jim is a surf board collector, and has one of the world’s finest collection of surf boards. Ed was literally silent for quite a while as he studied this fine group of boards. We have no idea how much our new friend had invested in these babies, but we do know he has quite an eye for the good stuff. That’s probably why he stopped by the booth, or was it the fishing model that caught this avid angler’s eye. We then took off for a 9 mile down-wind paddle through Central Florida, and checked out all the fishing spots we are going to hit in the near future. Jim even bought lunch at one of the area’s killer seafood/bars. Good fun and music, most of all Team Angulo has another rider in Central Florida, headed that way? Send me a note, and I will put you in touch with one of the best afternoons you will ever have!
