VACATION!

Posted by mike d. 11 comments

From May 17th – 24th 2008 I think I’m going to try and plan a trip to Hatteras NC for kite-boarding camp.

mind you, that says 2008.

Planning Vacation is so ridiculous. This is especially true when you have a 3 year calendar on your wall with class dates scheduled through February of 2009. I get about 11 weeks off over the course of a year, which isn’t terrible. It’s just a matter of timing. Outside of the four weeks in August, there aren’t really any breaks of consecutive weeks without class.

Anyway if you’re interested in learning the ways of the kite, you have about 9 months to think it over. We’ll talk about this again in January of 2008.

Also, potential new t-shirt silk screen design. Comments?

T-shirt!

I don’t know if I like the text. It might be better with just the image.

keep the text semi-blockish with a right upwards slant. You definately want a slant. Maybe some exaggeration and stretching in the text too.

You’ll love it down there! Any idea where you’ll be staying? Looks like that’s right on the end of the off season so you should be able to get cheap rates for a condo rental if that’s the way you go.

And as for planning vacations so far in advance, Tom and I have our next three (or four) vacations tentatively planned out, although we don’t actually have to pick dates far in advance, we like to have an idea what we want to do the next few years.

I like the design, but the two words should either be different colors of different fonts.

The text is good, and I think you should keep the same typeface and style…but center the text with the kite and guy logo. It’s too far left

Is the guy doing a kiteloop? Otherwise the kite lines are hooked up backwards. That being said, an unhooked, one handed kiteloop is seriously gnar…

Gnar is correct. That dude is doing an unhooked, one handed, kiteloop.
