who ever does go out, one thing is for sure, that water is going to be mud brown and smell like ASS-crotch.
Make it a "Green Death" Rainier Ale 40z and I'll thing about. Its thick, tasty, lots of bang for the oz and it makes a great disinfecting wash for sewer water.

Fair enough, it's really coming down out there. The CSO (combined sewer overflow) up's the bounty to a 40oz.
HeeeeyAAAA!

Caught the Slither in the act of dodging barges and sneaking up on poor unsuspecting female kiters. Caution everyone, the guy can put the stink on it for sure!

PS: Careful out there boys... The Bammers lens catches all!!!

Hey Guest,
Unfortunately the light was pretty crappy and I hung around freezing my ass off, but the weird Mt. Hood cloud would not budge. I kept the Slither shot just because I knew it would make a good comment photo with the barge and gal kiter in the foreground.
Hell yeah I take ski photo's, but with my ACL surgery in mid March I have been pretty much sent to the sidelines. I work up at Meadows as a ski destructor and trainer, and know enough sponsored riders that next year it will be game on. Finally just went digital and dumped all the Nikon FE2 stuff. Back in the day (like 15 years ago) when I was living up in Seattle I was very actively pursuing photography, but an engineering degree and the discover of wind and the Gorge put all that on hold.
I will definitely be posting lots of photo's on this site since I think it is a great way to show the local faces of kiteboarding. Sorry guys, but your only gonna get "B" stuff since the "A" stuff will be sent of to the mags for possible publication. If you catch me on the beach, don't hesitate to throw me your e-mail and I'll send you all the "B" shots I get of ya.
Here are some shots from the Meadows Rail Jam just before my surgery, and then some more kiting from a bit more east on Sunday...
Enjoy... Bam

| Slither, I can't tell you how disappointed I am to see you have cut your locks. The river is not the same. May the Wind Gods have mercy...bring back Francisco!

So Wind Slither and Guest person, did you guys end up making it out? If you did tell us how it was!! Also tell us how that water was. Did it smell like ass out there or what? 
BamBam, great pics! Sorry to hear that your not going to be on the water much this season. Hope that ACL heals quick! Good luck with the photography and getting your pics published. PUSH THE LOCAL SCENE!

Hey Mike,
Ha, I went for a mini/baby mountain bike ride in Hooville on Sunday...
Don't look for me to be standing on the shore much past early May. Yeah, your not going to see any of the usual Bam Bam unhooked backroll kiteloops to death splat that usualy entertain the local kiting scene until later in the summer. But, I'll be out there doing my best to mow the grass and keeping this forum supplied with local images...
Bam, bam bam bam!

I'm assuming this if still on the offering block. Slither? Anyone? Bueller?
Strong S wind from Scabjuice sensor S16 gusts to 31mph.

Beware the adverse effects of riding during a CSO, it has been known to cause mutations...
