LAKAWA

Greg, make sure you run around introducing yourself to every one. Don't be shy.
I hope you have a fun time.

Nancy's working I'm afraid, major bummer.

Used to do that with our mutt Lela, she loved it and then one day she got too close and got a nasty cut on one of her legs from the edge of the board, actually damaged a tendon. So that was that. Lela's heritage includes an instinct to tree animals, nothing makes her happier. One of my favourite mem...

Brian...where are you seeing forcasts for wind?

What's a leader line?

I'm not sure if my tweezers are left or right handed. I do know I'm having to use reading glasses with a much higher magnification to find anything these days. Joking aside, very happy you're OK, that would have sucked. I remember when Nate P lost the tip of his thumb to that tow rope wakeboarding. ...

If the worst a had come to the worst Jim and you'd ended up with a digit deficit......I know there's many of us here would have happily given you a finger

There's so many musicians that are on lakawa I think we have to plan a huge jam for one of these events one of these days. Maybe the late spring gathering. After all that's how the unvarnished music got added to the WOW regatta weekend , started with a camp fire jam and look what that weekends turne...

What sort of music do they do Tom?

So happy you got away with it. Kudos to the guys for rushing to help.
Nasty experience.

The lesson in my mind is not so much about the location of the knife, but keeping your hands where they should be in power situations.
But who gives a crap about the lessons we learn, I'm delighted you're OK.

Lovely to see so many people at Trollhaugen last night. Thanks everyone for making the Trek into the frozen wastelands.

I hope you all got a good nights rest, heaven knows a lot of us were up past our bedtimes.

Found out who the viking is, it's the kicker, Klue, clu-e ? I don't know how you spell it.

Ooh Jeff, I won't be able to help tonight but if you ever decide you need help refining your skills on a snowboard let me know, I'd be happy to help tweek your technique. I used to be a proper instructor but gave it up to teach kiting, time issues. Over the years I've had a lot of fun teaching vario...

We start at 9 p.m . We'll be there setting up from about 7.30 p.m. Tonights a pretty big night at Troll. The Courage Center which raises money and runs ski programms for Handicapped atheletes is have a fund raiser in the convention center. There's two bands booked there, one of them is supposed to h...

As Graham says most of us use a 3/2 mm from June until you can get into a shorty typically a 2/1 or 1mm Wetsuits these days are so good and there's so many choices. Graham mentioned Hyperflex and I have to confess I'm the Hyperflex rep. One of the nice things about these guys is they're actually des...

I'd love to do it , our singers ( a married couple ) have a two year old which makes it hard for them to do a gig where they'll have to stay overnight. They have to pay for a babysitter to travel. Now if Mike could cover their costs...who knows. Awesome to hear you have a crew coming Kate....stoked....

Katie, is Nate coming?

Wow with those guys helping it's a wonder you didn't end up in hospital. :lol: In truth you'll find all 3 of them are nice like that all the time, it wasn't a one off. It's kind of irritating actually. Now when you're experts you'll have to pass on the knowledge and help some struggling beginner you...

Had a nice day teaching on Cedar Lake. Tough to beat sunshine, steady breezes and nice snow. Nancy got out for her first time today, she's been so busy training for the Birkie that she hasn't had time to kite. This'll be her 20th Birkie, she gets to become a member of the elite " Birch Leggings...
