How is it going all of my fellow windsurfers and kite riders!!!? I was visiting the gorge this weekend on a business trip and a nice bloke I met down while riding told me about this site! I am here from New Zealand. I can only imagine the summers here. Must be mind blowing. It was cold on the water sunday, but man it was great to meet such wonderful people. I will post pics on this site once i figure it out. Anyone be down to meet up saturday to ride with a out of country fellow?

Thanks to all

Simon

Hey Simon,

Nice Ears. "Up Over" we don't talk about windsurfers on this site. See you on the water!

Welcome

What a shame that is... I grew up windsurfing and started kiting back in 2000. I used to love windsurfing so much but after trying kites there was no going back. My favorite windsurfing set up was my Neilpryde sail. Oh man could I lay down a wicked jargin on that ol boy... Now boosting is in my blood so I wont speak of it anymore. Is there a place I can rent a board and sail to go surf the gorge before I leave town? Any help would be great!!!!

This is me riding my surf set back in the 90's. ROCKIN

Awe thats crazy mate! My name is Simon. Its an old pic, I cut off the rocker hair. Are you perhaps going to be riding this weekend? I have a big van on rental for hauling our audio equipment and can fit a good three people in in if anyone wants to hitch a wagon and ride from portland to the gorge with me.

Planning trip this fall to NZ, both north and south islands. Would be great to have a contact there for any kiteboarding recommendations. Feel free to PM an e-mail if you like.
Out for now w/ a recovering shoulder, but might be out watching the wife have a good time.
