I have found 2 uses for my skim now...super-underpowered light-wind weapon, and super-nuked-out-lit-to-the-moon-edge master!!! Yeah its kinda tough with all the chop, but once you loosen your knees and just go with it....they all become obsticles and ramps!! Plus, it's way easier to keep the board glued to the feet. And, when I'm super lit...I just shift my weight to one side to really edge the board, which kinda makes it work like a huge skag-fin..It's when you are flat on your board when you get in trouble...you would've killed it too.. Thanks for the pics GMAN! sick air!! Kodiak Since 01 Aug 2005 1020 Posts Slidey CGKA Member Wed Oct 22, 2008 12:21 pm     Nice. I am back from Africa. If I had my stuff I would have been out. Heading up to to hood river today, so if it goes tomorrow I will probably be out. _________________ Help me fight cancer.

Ps I think you owe the Yellow kite guy that you tangled lines with a beer or several!

I drove by BV around 3:30 and saw a black kite out that looked way to big just bouncing off the water. I was hoping nothing bad was going to happen. _________________ Help me fight cancer.

Too bad you didn't get any of the 150' beach drag. Chooch Since 18 Nov 2007 1569 Posts Wicked Pissah Boston Tea Bagger CGKA Member Wed Oct 22, 2008 4:22 pm     That was probably me just sitting down putting my bindings on Jim...was on the 6.5m and lasted about 20 min. Just no fun with the huge gusts and lulls. _________________ http://www.wainmanhawaii.com PM me for a Demo anytime Keep Up to date with Daily Demo Locations: http://twitter.com/NWWainmanHawaii Lessons at Cascade Kiteboarding http://www.cascadekiteboarding.com/ kyle.vh Since 11 Jul 2007 692 Posts city of angels Addicted Wed Oct 22, 2008 5:18 pm     i think i left a blue micropuff jacket in the parking lot... if anyone grabbed it. genek Since 21 Jul 2006 1836 Posts East Po KGB CGKA Member Wed Oct 22, 2008 8:49 pm     Haha, a 6.5m looking wayyyy too big? Musta been some serious nukage. Camas and Viento were probably money though. _________________ The Slider Project, LLC Support the cause! http://www.sliderproject.com/ pdxmonkeyboy Since 16 May 2006 5352 Posts forever labled as the Unicorn Master Wed Oct 22, 2008 11:31 pm     Mark wrote: Ummmm to the guy with the Fuel and Yellow lifejacket, Probably not the best day to be practicing bodydragging with winds gusting into the low 50's.
