Re: 2 to 3" YAY!
I went out yesterday at LMSS. Lots of drifts and major speed runs was pretty fast. Lot,s of ice still out there because of blowing snow. Big drift ramps and good snow in veins. I saw plenty of ice houses right there in the channel to Carson's, all that have vehicle's parked right there. I saw some p...

Re: SUP Kiting
I plan on doing some this summer....I know nathan has done it and is stoked to play with it some more this summer. Sounds like they are making kites specific for this now. Check out F-One kites.

Re: Chris Krug's Xing Vid.
That is good stuff.....That big foil was fast no doubt! Chris had her moving nice in that light air...I am a sailboat racer at heart so had to try and fight him off at best I could with the machine just felt natural........ or atleast attempt to slow him down for fellow Westside Boy out front! Was l...

Re: Kite island
I kited today from over by sailors world. I have been parking off the lake and walking on with my kites. Seems to work pretty good with the southeast wind today. I was able to fly on one tack all the way from Sailors world to Robisons bay. I didn't see any kites out today besides mine......I was pow...

Re: monday sessions.....
I saw some vehicles going off and on there today....Looked like it was wet though but doable. Some good riding out there today.. Pretty much white out conditions all day. Nice amount of snow with an icy crust only a few bare spots here and there. Was getting flufflier as the day went on too.

Re: Warning: Thin Ice on Lake Minnetonka
I would advise not to drive on to lake minnetonka. If at all possible find a spot to launch from where you don't have to drive on. The lake was basically puddles of water today with some snow here and there. I am sure that it is going to harden up some in the next couple of days and that there is pr...

Re: The island is calling...
Was fun out there today....Gots to love the SW for Spirit Island. We down winded it from sailors world wasn't too bad getting back up wind either...We ended up playing off of Brackett's point doing air tacks off the wall skimming the tree tops...Pretty wild! Tomorrow looks like it may be a decent li...

Re: Be advised
Brian.....I know what you are talking about! I ran over that patch three times already and on the third time through it ate my ski and I ate some ice. Maybe someone with an ATV or a snowmobile should head out there and mark the spot with some stakes or something. Is a dangerous spot for all lake goe...
