: Hey Reg,

: I checked out your pages and great job on that King. You've got a lot of
: great photos there. Quite the adventurer you are.

: I was real excited to see the photos from your Zu Zu paddle shop tour. It's
: really neat to see how other folks do stuff and get ideas to improve my
: efficiency. What is your opinion of the Zu Zu paddles?

: Best, David Hill

Thanks David, I am pleased with the way the King turned out.

As for being an adventurer, I think adventure is usually just incompetence, so I try not to use that word too often. I do like to have worthy goals and accomplish them uneventfully though.

The ZuZu paddles are a real work of art and have a great feel to them, I have two. Chris is a fellow gizmologist and has created some interesting tooling to produce paddles. Some of his most innovative work does not show, like the carbon fiber core on foam that is built into the wood shaft. They are a labor of love and it shows in the flawless workmanship. He has a website under zuzupaddles
