				| craziness all those windsurfers. my wife counted 34 on the water at one point. somebody must have un-cancelled that sport. 
 they all strayed downwind of me. i think the key is to pull a kook manuever on the beach and and put some fear in them.
 
 extra friendly surfers this time as well. nice when all god's children can play without incident.

				| The coast was epic this weekend and we'll post some footage from the New Wind Camp soon including landboarding and wave riding.  I think Onad captured footage of Lenten and the SS crew testing the new LINK.  Patience..it may take a day or two to edit and post.   
 PS - The water was ubelievably warm and it was sunny both days.

 Hard to tell until you ride it.
 I counted 3 links out at Ship wrecks yesterday.
 To me it appears to be a fuel with it's tips cut off.

				| That's a good point.  i was preoccupied with not getting yarded but the people riding it looked like they were enjoying themselves.  in all honesty what i saw could've been a friggin machine and i wouldn't know the difference.  but i thought it was shaped like a waroo and it said 'link'.  anyway, it had cool colors |  |

				| The Link's construction looks pretty beefy (struts to leading edge, etc.) though.  That isn't in anyway saying that the current Fuel's aren't.  The new Link's just look nuts! |  |
