Seriously. I went x-country skiing up past carson today and was looking out at that. I was thinking what PDB (poor dumb bastard) would try and do that.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Hats off to you man. I am not that tough. I tried winter kiting last year and said no chance this year. Nice work man.

Nicely powered on the 9m Rev and DC shorty short surfboard - Kevin was 12 m and twintip (he had a perfect drift launch) - pretty warm in the drysuit - till you got your head under - you did not want to be bodydraggin

Alright. Water level looks like summer vs winter time. After like 2'' of rain on Jan1 or 2nd in PDX, PDX ended up only 88% of normal for rain fall for Jan.

Too cold for me out on the river right now. Hats off to the winter warriors.
