Tom Kohl's Gift Guide
Here at O'Brien we thought we'd put together a series of gift ideas for you. We thought the best people to do that are the people who are out there every day riding that gear, the members of our O'Brien Team! Here's the first of our series, team rider Tom Kohl.
Questions:
- What O'Brien Product would you buy for a dad?
- What O'Brien Product would you buy for a mother?.
- What O'Brien Product would you buy for a young child under 10?
- What O'Brien Product would you buy for a boyfriend/Girlfriend?
- Out of all the items currently on closeout sale, what would you like to receive as a present?
Tom:
- My Dad is still alive in the 80s, that dude wants to throw a wall up in front of all his buds, but he is getting a bit older these days, so probably go with the Sequence Slalom.
- Mom loves her grandkids and chilling by the lake with the girls, she would be down for the 8 person party float
- The Groms need to shred! The Hooky 128 is small enough for the 10yr old on the smaller side, but big enough for that 10yr old that could play on the 12yr old football team!
- ISUP all day long. Perfect date activity, super chill, they can use it anytime, and you can't be blamed for "driving the boat too slow"
- If I got to pick I think I would go Omerta 66" slalom. Normally I would say kneeboard, but I think I need to change it up a bit!
