dude, you should totally hitchhike. If anyone can do it, you can! No room in our hatchback or we would gladly pack you in. We are leaving @ noon. Hope to see you up there!

OK, OK, it was me who suggested cross training. not heading up this weekend, at least I don't think so.

You heading down to Cook this evening? Last night was a light wind cruising evening but I'm thinking tonight she'll deliver!

cheers

Thanks for the write-up Grant. From what I heard, there was this professional MC dude that gave top-notch action and colour commentary for all the kiting events...

Wish I could have been there. I hope you guys can do it next year!

Thanks for posting the photos, Wayne. You might want to check the name on the one that you call Matt, I thought it looks like Billy.

The one of the kiter over the windsurfer and a couple of others is me. Hope to see you down there this evening!

Cheers,

Paul

well, the link no longer shows hot temperatures, as it updates continously. But 35.5 earlier.... AND, if you check out the other features, they have wind speed, and animated movies of wind speed, temperature change etc. Easy to navigate, and has the potential to be a useful addition to the marine we...

Man, that is HOT!

dude, i hope your not hurting too much after your 'sea to land' excursion. and here's hoping your kite will be better than new after a visit to kite Dr. Rosco!

You should've recorded that session today - then you'd have a killer vid!

Yeah, the webpage is perfectly centred in my brower. This is still standard format, is it not? It is only very occasionally in my browsing that I don't get the whole page on my screen, so I assume most people are using the same resolution that I am (800x600).

Larry, when you say 'profiling', does this mean interviewing? If so, do you know who will be interviewed? Are we supposed to phone in?

ROSS - you're the kind of guy to be up early - call in!

This could be interesting...

yeah, works fine for me that way. Man, that place looks PERFECT for kiting. Nice flat water between the sets, perfect size waves...

I have seen it in action, it rights itself immediately, as it is designed to do. it is off centre, so it immediately flips itself over if it lands upside down. doesn't appear to catch spray either. just looks a little odd, which seems a small price to pay compared to losing a board or taking a board...

FYI - The Cranial Sacral Therapist next to the Beagle moved downtown. Her name is Sarah Hovey, and she is also a Registered Massage Therapist. So, many people are covered to see her through extended health. She doesn't do regular massage though - as she has specialized in CST.

I suffered for YEARS with lower back pain, involving mostly my SI joint. Three times I was entirely incapacitated. I found a few things helped. If in pain after neglecting to exercise/stretch, I will: 1. get a massage from an RMT to reduce the spasm 2. See a good Chiro. The Chiro can't really do eff...

Is there any way to animate the NOAA radar? I like the link someone posted to the WU radar, as you can see the precipitation moving in. I tried using the "Animated Radar" but it doesn't work so well on my computer...

Hey Jim - I have mine permanently adjusted. I simply don't wear the harness while setting up the kite/lines! Other than that, you got it right. Good luck!
