Yes, he's showing, his true side. A REAL A HOLE! A real surprise is that his sponsors, Hobie, Promar, etc. are still associated with him. I guess he represents their values. Re think what Brands you buy.

Mark, I was wondering the same regarding sponsorships. Negative sarcastic rhetoric towards fellow kayak anglers is not one of Hobie's values. Nor should it be for the ambassador of any brand.

Disliking a WSB grow-out volunteer who advocates for the kayak community in CCA and local politics is difficult. When does the condescending sarcastic attitude outweigh the attaboys?

Hobie might want to add this to the fishing team standard issue:

There is rumor of an actual underlying issue that was not stated. lawsuits and countersuits going on. the original lawsuit has publicly available information, while the countersuit has not been released to the public yet.

There is another rumor that the vendor list was so small that the show would hardly even reach break-even in terms of cash flow. After all, why hold a show if you make $0 from it.

PCS is now taking big advantage of this cancellation and trying to promote a massive show for 2023.

I too heard that Hall family sold the show.

Now the seller and buyer are suing each other.

The covid issue is an excuse.
