    Thanks man! I try to keep living my life no matter the obstacles put forth.
    No problem... I have very severe asthma... yes I realize it not the same deal.... however it's nearly killed me 3 times. I enjoy life despite having some limitations, and at least try even when others say I shouldn't or can't.

    Does your cage bolt on? or snaps to the edges? What board do you normally ride? I here the Mana is a sweet ride.

    severe asthma? and you are out there wet sanding that sunsport? man, you're crazy, lol. I dont think I would be out there sucking up fumes and dust if I had asthma, lol. but you gotta get it done, right.

    The cage bolts into the binding locations. This way you can move it forward or reverse to allow for a smooth ride. All last year I rode the 2011 Shaun Murray Nova Core board. The year before that i rode a cheap 2009? Gator Militant board. The Mana was a pretty neat board. It has an extremely late, aggresive, three stage rocker. Molded in fins at the tip and tail with a removable center fin. Also, the center is extremely flat so the landings are a bit rougher than the Murray board which has a center spine. The edge on the Mana allowed for quick and easy edging. Actually, I dont think I have ever edged that hard in my life. It is an aggresive board!!! And of course, seeing Dean Smith ride the baord you can understand why its like that. He goes so HUGE and so far into the flats! I know if it were me out there riding as big and hard as he does I would probably break some ligaments in the knees.

    Finally got to wake board behind it for the first time. I was pretty happy with it.
