Let me know if you know of any options for him. 920-2five1-eight648. If anyone else on Lakawa knows of anything, le...

Re: US Nationals in WORTHINGTON in 2 weeks
I am trying to get confirmation on camping on/alongside the beach. Will post when I find out. I know that rule hasn't really been enforced in the past because some people have still done it. Just not sure that it is technically allowed. FYI, there is a campground kind of on the other side of the lak...

Re: Worthington High Wind Alert !!!
It was a great three days of sailing in Worthington. Wind showed up and records fell. Andrew Anderson set the bar high, REALLY high. He went a stupid fast 35.4 knots (40.7mph) for 10-seconds, peaking at 37.6 knots (43.3 mph)! He did this on 75-cm wide, 120L Carbon Art slalom board with a 7.8 Pryde r...

The Anderson clan will be there too! Andrew is flying in from CA as we speak, and the rest of us are on our way there Friday/Sat morning. It would be great to see some kites giving this a try. In case you didn't know, there are some cool prizes on the line for kiters too (excerpt from http://midwest...

Getting gear to Texas
Does anyone know a good way to ship a mast to Texas? It exceeds the max length of 108" (about 116") for FedEx and UPS. Alternatively, is anyone headed that way and want to get some gas money for taking it along?
Thanks,
Arden

Re: hydrofoil windsurfing
I am just finishing building a set of hydrofoils that I am going to put on one of my old imco's (then it can float when there's not enough wind and the length of it won't matter once it is up on the foils). It should be able to start riding on the hydrofoils at somewhere around 9 or 10 mph. I also h...
