I know they are not rated as any kind of safety. When is the new regulations coming out. I’m thinking that they will only become...

All very good points. In a different water activity my friends cousin was out on a lake with a jet ski. Took a wave sideways and flipped. It took them a few days to secover his body.

Life jackets?
Ok so I’m still new and I’m sure people will be laughing at me for this. I know with a wetsuit it is good for floating, but does anyone wear life jackets? I’ve been in Shawnigan mostly and there was never any issue. Just curious because I’m wanting to venture away from the lake and get into bigger w...

I fix it.
Great news, after messing around with it today I was able to replace the track. Not going to get into it but it's fixed. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Drilling for track
Ok so my last trip out I kept stepping on the button that allows the mast to move forward and back. Very frustrating to say the least. So today I thought I would take off the track and see if I can put the mast base from my other board on it. Well stripped the head of the screws so I thought I could...
