    Overpowered the first time out on the 4.7m sail. It is time to buy a smaller board. I bought smaller sails but I also need a 400cm mast to rig the 4.2m sail. Columbia Beach is a great excuse for new gear! Anyone else concure? After an hour break I went out for another 2 runs (I tire easily). I enjoyed surfing accross the waves. Surfing and windsurfing put together are heaps of fun. Best time I have had yet!!

    Spent first 2 hours getting suckered out in gusts on 89L board, practiced lots of sailing knee deep and body drags back. Ended up very long walk of shame from below the concrete outlet. Great when powered in the straps though! Switched to big board, at least it slogs, would have been perfect with 7.5, but OK on 5.8. First for spending much time in waves - did a couple of drops off the break and small turns on mushy white stuff, even that was fun! Tried to get out past bar underpowered a few times, made i ...

    Sailworks Retro 8.0
    Rigged the 5.0 Retro for the first time and got on the water around 2pm. Promptly returned to shore and rigged the 8.0 Retro. At 3:30 the wind picked up, got a good hour of planing in and finally figured out how to get into the back footstrap comfortably, trick for me is to go for it right away as soon as the front foot is in. Wind calmed down with some planing gusts until 5pm. Saw Steve leaving with a barnacle injury as I was setting up.

    Day 12 at CB for me this winter. What an amazing spot and another great day. Nicely powered on the 4.5 and some great powered up wave rides. Put on the 4.0 and had about 3hrs of comfy sailing. Nice rides even at low tide. Lots of back loop attempts but kept landing on my head.

    So glad that Vancouver trip was cut short. I thought the party was over when I got to CB and everyone was packing up their 4s and heading home. But the wind came back and I was juiced on 5.0 for 2 hours. Couldn't catch a wave to save my life today but had some nice jumps and back loop-like thingies. I don't want this spring to end!

    :D :D :D Arrived at 9am, Jimmy and a couple other kiters out 12/16's. I rigged 6.5, and couldn't plane. Rigged the 8.0m just as it picked up and ripped on the 8.0 and Carve 121 for a couple hours. Then it picked up again and went down to the 6.5 for the last hour and a half. 6 tacks made, no jibes made....too much wave-age for me!! When I left there must have been 15 kites either out or on the beach. :shock: Just as I'm packing up two windsurfers went out on 5.7's and Morley was rigged 5.8m.

    Too much ... (more)

Now I know what it's like for you guys on your smaller gear....YIKES!! Yes, 6.5 is my smallest right now. Ended up down the beach by the spiral stairwell. Went out again made it back to just below the reef. Waited 20 mins, came up again to 15kts. Went out and it backed off. Came in and decided for my first Kook St session ... (more)

    Drove to JR with the wind increasing as I drew closer. 5 min before the beach the wind shut off. Turned around to get a session back at Kook. Kook St. seemed squally but hopeful. Got suckered out in a squall, sailed for 10-15 min, sunk to my waist, swam in. Waited for the next squall. Lit on the 5.0 for a bit, threw some fun flat water forwards (MUCH easier but scarier when overpowered). Don and Tim were out as well; enjoying the freezing weather.

    It took me half the beach and smaller waves to get past the break. I got tired too quickly because I was way over powered. Should have used the new toys from Dunkinguy(I had smaller gear just sitting in my van and I didn't use it.). I enjoyed 2 runs toying with the moving walls of water. This was the first time wave sailing for me on a windsurf board. I had a great time!

    2.00 hours starboard carve 80 8'4"
    sailworks winduro 5.7
    got out there just as it was dropping had a good hour and half on the 5.7 powered up, came in for a break then it really died out, so i tried to have a "freestyle" session, ended up just practicing uphauling the short board, then practiced de-rigging in the water and swimming to shore. Thats right I always go out with an uphaul!

    chop with rogue swells
    2.50 hours seatrend atv 71l
    Starboard Freesex 97l
    naish edge 5.0
    DavePro II downhaul stick 7.25"
    On the water at 730am, just me and the sea lions. tried a 5.9, that was dumb. 5.0 was perfect for the next 2 hrs but I had to exchange the freesex for the smaller atv. Got surprisingly dialed in considering ive sailed neither board before. Worked on my stay dry jibe, a few forwards and back loops. a bit lonely untill the kite dudes hit it at 9. It started cranking as i packed up, i was too tired to rig down anyway. the atv is slippery as hell, if anyone has a ½ jug of re-deck give me a shout.
