If you see "stand up paddle boarders"......

Post by Quetzalcoatl »

If you see "Stand up Paddle boarders." show them what a sail can do when it's hooked onto a board.

Really this is a group of people that we (windsurfers) should "reign in." It's a no brainer.

Winsurfing on the rise and wear your lilfejacket! You can buy high raised windsurf vests that allow your harness hook to NOT get tangled up.

Or,...for real cheap use a Kayak lifevest they are high up on chest and give clearance for your harness hook.

Also remember and the most important point:::, "Beauty is in the Eye of the Hoarder!" And...YOU need more Wind gear!!!

Quetzalcoatl out (and I approved these "sage" messages).
