The irony is that he was probably texting his financial advisor to find out if he could still afford the insurance and the next payment on that puppy.

Pete Gisvold, Doug Wiltsie and I are heading to Cannon today. 15-25, sunny and warm if anyones interested.

Icon man makes the big screen!!!!!!

Seems like we live in a world of information overload these days. The problem with that is that we can get conditioned to always need to know everything, to try to always be in control, which heightens our dissapointment when things dont go the way we want and leads to an expectation of immediate gr...

Randy, My wife and I laughed while reading about da kid working on his kitespeak. "Aw, how cute" she says. Dont tell anyone but I had to agree. There must be a gene that causes someone to want to get airborne. I remember too when I was a kid making some kind of kite/wing/sail/flying thingy...

The word Icon sez it all, a regulah man about town.

I should have stuck around a little longer, but after slogging around for four hours on a 6.6 trolling for for the occasional blast I was totally fed up. Frustrating. As I finished derigging it started coming up, but by then I was all out of patience for one day. Fortunately, thanks to Craigs suppor...

Didnt use the Vectors eithers, I was using a fifteen year old Finworks Wing 36cm. Gonna have to try something a little more modern one of these times :roll: I agree that more wind isnt necessarily better for going fast. With lake sailing theres that point where the chop and gustiness starts to decre...

Randy, that your grand daughter was born into a family with a history of wind addiction during a raging gale is profoundly karmic. Would anyone be suprised if she grows up to have the wind in her blood? Congrats!! I ventured down to Worthington, I figured at least if I was going to get my ass handed...

lol Steve "Yeah, I kinda like the biology class poster sinewy muscle thingy, you know, cuz it sorta makes the beer belly look a little more ripped, but to be honest dude I was looking for something a little more edgy, perhaps say alien meets predator skin oozing slime kinda thing you know, yeah...

Yeah kilometers, of course, I knew that.

NWS hourly graph for Cannon tommorow. 48 gusting to 63 at 2 pm. *snicker* *bwahahahaha*

Jesus. *gulp*

Steven old bean, you've got a right posh accent there for a guy from up north, are ya sure you didnt spend a little time hob nobbing with the upper crust in Winchester or summat?

Bloody Australian!?!? Crikey, that explains a few things...................

I'm afraid you're being staked out by the Slingshot Center for Recovering Windaholics Crisis Intervention Team, probably called out to bring you in by a family member/wife/significant other, or perhaps even a "friend" who wants all your gear. Most likely they'll take you down and incarcera...

Special thanks definately in order to Craig Bergh for tirelessly promoting the Midwest Speed Quest once again. Also to his wife Pam for all the great hospitality. I think it was a challenging year for everyone involved given the stinging gas prices putting a damper on peoples travel plans combined w...

Yes!

Wow, the Rose Gardens, I remember sailing there on south winds, I dont remember why we went there instead of the north side of Calhoun, anyone? I do remember my first board though, an O'brien Sensation bought new on sale from Midwest Watersports for $350 complete, which weightwise, worked out to abo...

Got the day off so far......................*twitch*........*twitch*....................................
