Got there early as MM5 called early shut down at 10, started gusty as hell with 6 gusting to 3.5, very tough sailing, mellowed a bit & steadier, got more volume, switched lateron to 4.8 but a bit over as wind came back again. Nice session, hard work, fully pooped so had to quit....unable to lift sail was the cue. One blown harness line, a few nice skies, one unintentional forward oops. Hands falling off, arms 4" longer, seriously drained, almost drowned in hottub.

Solid non-stop 2 hour session. :D Occasional very sweet lineup of swell, then confused other times. The cold sort of held me back from trying any tricks... just a relaxed sail enjoying the swell and getting a few jumps. Felt too bound up in neoprene to try any loops. The palmless mitts kept the hands warm, but no matter how you look at it, gloves suck :evil:

I was thinking about going to IV on my way down I stopped by at Willows and saw KUS and another guy were having way to much fun, so I decided to join the party. What a swell party was it! Fully powered 4.5 time to time a little overpowered, some holes here and there but nothing to really complain about. Had a few good jibes, now I better understand how to position myself relatively to the swell, so it all goes nice and smooth.
North section had nice ridable 4 ft swell, flat section on south side. Very ... (more)

Wondered what the hell I was doing driving through Lantzville in a blizzard with 2-3 cm of snow on the ground. Ended up being fun but brief. Sailed 4.2 for 40 minutes or so with a couple of hand warmup breaks. Snow really stings the eyes. Rigged the 5.0 and was feeling pretty warm and fired-up but it died after 15 minutes and Ozzy and I had a nice 10 minute swim in. Some big airs and a couple of nice front-side hits. Wish it had lasted longer.

Well the next best thing to Columbia is Island View. Great 4.0 for two hours or so. Nice swell, the wind turned more onshore later in the morning. Nice shore break too, only got punished 3 or 4 times. Very cold on the hands - they never did warm up. And now as I look out the window its snowing. Brrrrr. Only a few back loop attempts and lazy swell rides today.

Came in and eased off the downhaul and outhaul and started rippin'. Still waterstarting at each turn so I was getting chilly with the 3/2 in the sleet so I called it a ... (more)

Wow What an awesome day. Thoguht about IV but man shore break was too big. I had lots of power at Willows though (actully a little too much but I just had to try out that new sail) The only downside was that it was a bit cold out today brrrr, but still very fun

A good long day on the water. Nice waves until the ebb kicked in then it got choppy. Good port ramps. A few backloop attempts, Hoss tacks, reg Tacks, 360s, thats about it. 4.5 felt really good until late aft when it kicked up a notch. Nice to have local sailing for a change.

Nice to sail local waters again. Tried lots more forwards. Got a bit cocky and launched a big one off of a large ramp, over rotated an endo, still found myself 7' up and bailed. Got my foot stuck in the strap and tweaked it. Lesson learned: I'm not ready for big forwards yet :shock:
Learning lots in over and underpowered loop attempts. Windy in the afternoon!!

Rigged up 4.5 sailed for about 30 min and then it became too strong and gusty. More downhaul didn't help much, got punished on the reef, and spat out :) . Chickened out off forwards again :oops:, I need a little saneier conditions. My jumps are coming nicely though, got a couple on a port tack , woo-hoo! On starboard tack just got this nice wooooosh feeling on a take off!

First time on water in almost 2 mo. Nice 4.7 wind at first with some gusts but fairly smooth swells. Later on got gustier and started nukin'. tide was ebbing the whole time so the chop got ugly later on as well. A little cool on the fingers but manageable. Wind Doc was throwing some nice forwards. :D

:( Launched from Ross Bay as tide was out and lots O' Kelp at Kook St and the reef was showing. First run was great, powered up but boom too low so came back in and moved boom higher, next run sloggin until the outside. Then it was slog - pump - plane - slog - pump - plane....until I got too tired and came in. Not the best sailing but better than nothing!! :D

day started with Dave and I doing a lot of waffling on whether to head up island on a sketchy forecast. but, the drive was worth it. 8 windsurfers on the water, with lots of people trying new tricks. I learned one new thing today - don't try looping on an upwind takeoff :oops: all the articles say to bear off, a lot - and, they are right :!: wish I had that crash on video. Got a couple of helis, and did a couple of 360s. fun day.

A good day and a good call to head up. About 8 backloops attempts with only 1 that didn't look like a wounded bird falling out of the sky. 1 vulcan attempt, some Hellies and Hossies. Not much swell but the wind was steady.... Try harder next time!

Another fun day at Columbia! Starting to land the odd forward, waterstarting from most. Had some good hard spankings :twisted: on some under rotated ones. Can't get enough of that spinning sensation!! Landed some backs today. The rest of the boys were sailing well. Lots of backloops being thrown all around.
Bring on the westerlies for some local sailing!

Variable,. gusty, but worth the few great rides on smallish waves back to the beach. Clam diggers think windsurfers are nuts :D

Great Day. 1st Session was hard work. Gusty winds, overpowered and a little rusty. 2nd Session was much better wind was still strong but more consistent. Floaty jumps & beautiful swell to be had. Wicked start to the 05 season. Note to self: Don't try and rescue a kite in a wind shadow.

Great day! The first session was nice 4.5 conditions with fun riding on the inside and lots of backloops. Trev and Bry were throwing some HUGE backs! Came in for a break disappointed that I hadn't tried any forwards. Second session was on the freestyle board and 5.0. Saw Mike come back out on the water with his game face on and was stoked to see him toss a nice forward! That set off the tone for the second session and I threw 8 forwards, learning tons in each attempt. Finally landed one upright. Just need ... (more)

A good long day. Tried lots of back loops but mostly lame attempts. Tried 3 forwards with only one having a hint of some rotation. It's a start I guess. Hats off to the super duper loopers Mike and Chris. Maybe some more tries tomorrow...

:D :D :D [b:b6438c27aa]Kus[/b:b6438c27aa] and I came about 11, it was marginal 4.5, I felt quite powered up, didn't tried LOOPING right away ( should though ), tried some other things instead, had few very good runs then it drooped a bit.
During the break I talked to [b:b6438c27aa]Bryan[/b:b6438c27aa] and [b:b6438c27aa]Trev[/b:b6438c27aa] about looping, thanks guys for such a great boost! Once I said OK there was no way back, so I did it, I went for a forward, didn't quite go around though, but made a ... (more)

Nice 20-25 knot session at Columbia. Decent swells. A few mishaps incl busted Q line, death spiral. Then later my spreader bar coming out of the clip on one side (totally my fault) then getting launched and landing on my elbow in 8" of water, then losing my kite and spreader bar then recovering both of them. Alex got my kite but hindenberged his onto the beach. Thanks to Snapper I waded in the shore at dusk and unbeleivably found my spreader bar. An eventful day, might have overdone it a bit. Reinforces why ... (more)
