VANCOUVER ISLAND WINDTALK

"Teabag: Hey all, I am in Cozumel right now, and today I tried jumping for the first time and I kept trying all day. Out of ~20 tries I succeeded landing only about 7 to 9 times(almost half). But the FEELING you get INSIDE IS SO MUCH INTENSE/GREAT/GOOD!!! There is a smiley face that can't get out of my face since the first try this morning. I am like a little kid that is super happy for no reason, or a teenager that got his first se@#al encounter. 7 fu#@$ng years of time, walk of shame, teabagging, money (gear) but most importantly determination and dedication. 7 Years of hard work!!! I just can't believe it!!! I am drunk right now and should not post while being drunk but I am so happy!!! It is unbelievable the feeling and happiness you get from that air time, even if you don't land the jumps every time. Ok, I need to apologize for this drunk post, but after 7 years of trying, and suddenly reaching that ultimate goal, there is no word to describe the feeling right now. Thanks to anyone who help me out in Nitinate or everywhere else, thanks to this website and people keeping it alive, it is extremely appreciated. Dunk but extremly happy guy... OUT. - Tuesday April 21, 10:17PM"

JL, I second that. Possibly even 'post of the month' award

"the post that displays enthusiasm for kiting"

too partisan and narrow what happened to wonderful humor, best info, most interesting or informative, enthusiasm/stoke for windsport, community contribution, most volatile topic

Also how would you post it....below the POW? Having a thread reappear weekly would be a bit much...

Kus's post of the week ? I just didn't feel I had enough authority to decide which overall post was the best ... It's a good idea ... (oops, just burnt a pan of bacon & the dogs are freaked by the smoke alarm) Only Dave can set thinks up differently ... p.s. With this week of no wind I'm back to looking @ boats. http://www.f-boat.com/pages/trimarans/F-22.html
