You have pic's from Sunday? I'm looking for a cool pic of Klicker & I riding together on the Slingshot gear.

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement batcam (the clear plastic cover that holds the batten in place). I cracked mine on my 1999 V8 Streetracer at Waconia. I tried Neil Pryde website and various google searches, but with no luck. If anyone has an old blown up NP sail that I could poach a ba...

The foils have no ridge internal structure where as the LEI (Like Slingshot Fuels) have a ridge frame. So when the big puffs hit the kite the LEI will hold it's shape. When the wind is blowing from the East on Tonka it can be a little puffy (to say the least). I was out a few weeks back on an Easter...

Conditions look good for Wacky World

However, Mtka is where I'll head out tomorrow.

There was some women on the powerboat at the gybe mark,,, let's see some photo's!!!!!!

I've grown up on Mtka and windsurf all the time on the lake and love it. It's closer to the City then Waconia and there are very little weeds on the main lake vs. Weedconia Here are some places you can access Mtka 1) Robinson Bay Beach http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=&saddr...

ohhhh I can sooo relate to what Chanrider & Fred are saying. I was on Mtka Sat out of Poachie beach in Cottagewood. My 160L explosion with a 6.5 was HANDFUL. I had some great moments of thrill followed by shear terror,,,, then over the handlebars,,,, ouch. The constant feel I'm on the edge is so...

The usual suspects (Tonka Boyz) will be out at Kite island on mtka. The grill will be hot and the beverages flowing and the wind blowin'.

We night ride out at Kite Island on Minnetonka every Tuesday. You can drive your car out to the island. You'll want a helmet light. The links below are lights that work well.

I just saw Alex P on Kiteboarding TV show on INHD (Channel 206 on Comcast). He spent a week kiting in the Virgin Islands and was hosted by Sir Richard Branson. WOW!!!! I am jealous. :D :D Branson bet that his nephew could win the race to Anegada island. The weather was light and no one could keep it...

I want to go kiting on Sunday and I was thinking about Turtle. Any takers? Or is there a better place to go?

Anyone going to be out at Turtle this weekend?? I was out at Buffalo this weekend for the DN regatta. Some sketch spots and the warm weather doesn't help. However, it's going to get COLD!!!! So by the weekend it should be fine.

Is Turtle a safe lake? No springs or things?

Eric, I would definately take top honors for the Gilligan award after my epic 3 hr 22 min ride across Mill Lac's for the crossing. I technically got across in 1 hr 30min, but then it took me 2 hours to get up to the finish. Advice for next year to myself,,,, RIG BIG and bring my BIG board!!!! Will :...

Tighe,

I have a cool shot of my brother & I. I'll e-mail you the attachment

I'm so jealous!!! I want to go to Waco today and shred, but that whole job thing is getting in the way. I need to be independantly wealthy.

Have fun folks

Is it still at the Lagoon?

Timewalker, I love the GPS course plot. I was right behind you and followed you into that back bay 2 miles south of the finish. What a struggle to get to that damn finish. This was my first crossing attempt and I'm psyched that I made it. I want to thank all the people out there that supported us. I...
