Pictures did not come out great in the above post.  I had to do screen grabs of a really nice PDF he made.

Hey Nugz!

Isaac has actually left the country and is hopefully sailing a lake in Switzerland with the legendary Balz Mueller.

The mast and extension are still available.  I’ll e mail you at the above address and try to get you set up with it.

This was a great day for me to get back to the water.  As some of you guys were aware I had some heavy shoulder surgery this past winter, so being around the water with everybody was reassuring as I neared a return to the water.

I managed to shoot some pretty good video of Scott on foil with my drone, and managed a good pass or two of Eric and…[Read more]

Wow Eric!

Very thorough launch site listing.  Well thought out, described, and organized.  Woodlawn will hopefully get a visit from me this summer.

Nice Mark!

wish I hadn’t been out of commission this winter.
What were you wearing on your feet?  You sounded pretty quiet at the turns.

Cool vide Mark!

Glad you scored some great wind and recorded some riding to boot.  You’re getting some nice air too.  So quiet and floaty.

I saw a pretty cool jump/transition (from a windsurfers perspective) at the 3:56 mark of your vid.  Another rider starts doing a low back roll that transitions to a twist and lands going back in the di…[Read more]

I’ll have an eye on it for a post work session at like 4:15 or so.  Forecast looks good!!

Wow!!!!  Legit!

What a find.

Somebody will be very lucky.

I caught your session report on FB, Eric!  nice!!!  Wilson sounds legit.   A bit of a hike for us, but when we are jonesing for a session, who knows.  Webster park here in town is a nicely exposed wave spot when the water is way down (and before the flooding of two years ago) but it now has huge rip rap and is quite technical.  In years past we wo…[Read more]

Informative read and opinions you guys.  I’m in the market for some new skis and this helps inform my decision with sore knees in mind.

Amazing story Scott!  That’s something about the grey wind meter…..it’s cups were spinning away, eh?

I’m paying the wind gods back I guess…yup, my hot water heater blew the night before and the “save me some money” gods smiled on me with a friend who would replace it with me and a very reasonable rate.

It crushes me to know so many of the…[Read more]

Hi Collin,

Welcome to the Forum.  I’m Doug, the admin. of this site.  I’m fairly certain that the message service that you’ve heard about is the Groupme app.  It is very convenient and pretty easy to become a part of.  Kiter Doug C. handles many of the Groupme  sign ups.  As best as I understand it, you can use the app, or have messages sent…[Read more]

Wow!  WOW!

Hey Geoff, what a great list of gear.  And you are pretty much paying people to take it off your hands.

I may be interested in some things……I’ll get a hold of ya.

Regarding uploading images, to the best of my knowledge you need to load one image at a time, but you CAN upload more than one image into a post.  It does seem to ta…[Read more]

Hello all,

This is indeed a bummer.  I stopped in with my son yesterday to visit with Steve and he was unpacking some new kayaks to get on the water.  Steve has been fantastic in helping to get my son windsurfing and always takes care of any windsurfing need I have.

Regarding the future of CDGA Sailboarding, he did give me a few fuzzy details (…[Read more]

Wow Bob!  What a waterman you are.  Thanks for the review on this wing.  Scott, Gary and I were talking about this a few weeks back, and the rigid boom/tube concept of the Duotone wing makes the most sense to us, at least coming from the rigid framed wing world that we do in winter.  Were you able to get enough apparent wind to steer to wind?  Th…[Read more]
