The Phileas Project

Phileas was the 50th mat to come out of the G-Mat workshop. To celebrate this, and to say thank you for all the support I've been shown by the mat world, I thought it fitting to send her off around the world.

This blog is a record of Phileas' journey. As she gets around and people send me their pictures and and some words I'll put them up on here.

Around the world in... Well... Who knows?!

I've just had an email from John Hughes and it seems that the day sight seeing around Cocoa Beach has broken the bad surf hoodoo.

John says:

Woohoo! Philias must be good luck.We had the best waves of the summer and the pics to prove it.

Hurricane Eduardo delivered the goods! Philias finally got to stretch his [Ed: Her!] legs after the long international flight. The mat is fast and loose and switches up from a high speed run to a tail-out drift with with just a subtle shift of the hips.

It also loves running the whitewater and I found myself running parallel to the soup, switching right and left just because I could.

We are supposed to have more waves in a few days but unfortunately it is time for Phileas to hit the road. Next stop is for Jamie McClellan in the tube wonderland of the Outer Banks, North Carolina.

Aloha y'all- John

Thanks a lot for hosting Phileas John. Looks like you had a blast. Many thanks to Hurricane Eduardo for coming up with the goods.

Can't wait to see how Jamie gets on.

Cheers
