Another option which seems to work is to post a "Gear Wanted" message in the Windsurfing Buy and Sell Forum . Make a list of the gear that you are looking for. Be specific if you can.

Good motivation Janet. I too would like to spice up the flatwater a bit. The 88L Flare is really asking me to do it. Kinda like the first time I tried a true downhill bike on a steep slope.

Thanks so much for taking and posting this video. It really gives one a good feeling of the location and conditions that day. I wish I was there too!

There seems to be many aftermarket metal mounts/cases for GoPro popping up to help combat breakage e.g.: http://www.lifeisunruly.com/headcase-pro/index.html

more money to spend... :roll:

On a related note: An interesting list of aftermarket accessories

The polarized filter looks great.

Poor Playback Help: GoPro recommends using VLC Media Player (free) instead of Windows Media Player. Also see the other suggestions on their support webpage. http://gopro.com/support/articles/how-t ... p-playback

I've been looking for something similar too, but more of an impact vest/harness combination. I like my 2004 Neil Pryde impact harness but it is no longer offered. Dakine, Cabrinha and Prolimit also used to make impact harnesses but it seems that most manufacturers have cut this combined ...
