Agreed, where was he? Or is he a fictional character?
I do have three 'Classic' sailboards the 'windsurf man' has to own in the mother of a board quivers!

Here is a story WCCO just did on me and the sport of snow surfing: http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2017/01/22/finding-minnesota-snow-surfing/ I have several different boards besides the 'Russian style sled' in the piece: A 'turney board' which is like an iceboat with a pivoting forward deck that turns...

Hey Quetzy!
Did you look at my gear list - posted a couple months ago? A couple of true classics are available! Plus lots of other gear - package deal available? Of course!
Also - about that Bare dry suit - it is an XL - FYI

I found a zone of relatively smooth ice! Along the eastern shore of Big Island and all around Gales Island on Minnetonka - Get it while you can!

I was windsurfing on Lake Minnetonka - it was pretty windy and extreme! I have a pair of the Dakine mitts that I have "customized." Cut a very thin slot in the mitts - 1/4" wide - located between your two knuckles on your hands when hanging onto the boom. This lessens the arm fatigue ...

Awesome pictures! Thanks for posting!

I'm glad to hear that you are in a better spot Eric! Yes, come on out to Waconia the next time the wind blows - see you then!

First of all: It's good to hear from you - Mr. Admiral! How have you been? The gang misses seeing you at Waconia!

Second: "tis but a scratch - It'll buff right out!"

I like your stories Quetz! Waconia went off big on Sunday. Tons of kiters and widsurfers out. Plus a fishing tourney out of the DNR lot. Busy place!

Guaranteed to be a great time!

I'm sure there is a way to combine the two events.

Double points Mike?!

I need a way to catch up to Stroh - then take him down in the series!

Looking good Matt! So great you are kiting on the edge. Great to hear your updates of where the good terrain kiting spots are near Minnesota!

Kite on!

Yes, another fine cold water session at the WAC! Having a Hillbilly hot tub (a cooler filled with hot water) really helps out with the feet! I hope we get some more!

Just saw this and called - thanks!
Nothing worse than needing a dry suit!

Yes, last Saturday and Sunday were Epic at Waconia. Super rare for August! So fun!

What are the hours for the swap?

Hey Bill, yes - that was a great Opener! It is amazing to see many of the same faces decade after decade! It makes you wonder why there aren't many young folks in the sport as it is so fun. To me, kiting in the winter and windsurfing on the water is the best! See you next time!

What on awesome event! Great job Jason and all the other countless volunteers - Thank you!

Truly Epic!

I was out there today - A low friction surface but good for setting an edge. if we get a steady 6 mph plus - it will be good.
