    First time at Columbia in some decent wind. Got worked on the 5.2, put the 4.7 on and got worked on that, i blame the operator. Still fun to get out and do some nice runs in the swell. Wow, whole new world of windsurfing.

    Ocean Rodeo Pyro Dry Suit
    Got lucky on the early session and caught the best wind of the day. Strong gusts, but the new OR 14M handled beautifully! One of the best swells over the sand bar today. Ugly chop and knarly current on the outside. As usual, Jim was first on the water. Later Gareth showed up then a handfull of other guys. A really fun session! :D

    Had enough playing the "gee it sure LOOKS windy" game, any of my ancient Neil Pryde race sails wouldda ripped, as it was I was always underpowered, at least planing 75% :evil: 2 million heli attempts, made only 1 tho :? Leg held out ok :)

    Gusty fun. Rigged up 5.5 had two runs, then it died. Went home, got 6.7, went back to the beach. It took me 20 min to rig this f.....n bastard. I hate this sail. It's like mowing the loan being attached to a barn gate. :evil: Anyway, I guess I shouldn't hate it, cause it kept me going.

    Perfect 5.0 to start with fun ramps for loops. Wind picked up, ramps got sketchy and then the logs joined the session. Smacked a few sticks, watched mike and Jose get tossed savagely by some Kung Fu logs :shock: . Rigged the 4.5, the swell cleaned up a bit and the sticks retreated. Fun session despite the sticksurfing.

    Debris Day. Started out with comfortable 5.0 with head-on chop - Ideal loopin' conditions. Chris's loops were providing inspiration. Made a loop attempt shortly after getting on the water - not a great rotation, like maybe 2/3 and landed on the shoulder. On the way in hit submerged log/stick full tilt - board stopped, Morewind got chucked :evil: bad crash, tweaked right wrist - ouch. No more loops. Ice 'n Advil evening. :roll:

    Really gusty, short session. I like high tide here, didn't hit the fin this time :D Managed to miss all the logs and debris, but I only did a half dozen or so runs. Not even close to making a jibe, but otherwise felt pretty good :lol: Seatrend is MUCH nicer than my bigger boards in the air after you hit big chop - actually felt controlled :P Got to get in better physical shape, exhausted each few runs/waterstart shenanigans!

    Best Yarga 9M
    Arrived at Columbia & it looked too windy for my 9m. Decided to borrow Mattdogs 7m. Upon returning the wind had died down a bit so when out on the 9m. Wind was fairly puffy but as to be expected in that wind strengh. But the swell was just amazing. Huge sets would roll in. Lots of smooth water in between. I love the daylight savings.

    Pipers on a SE is no Columbia but I had a BLAST. 4.2 for a while, got lulled once too many times and upped it to 5.0 - perfectly powered. Nasty head-on beach break. Some waist-shoulder swell on the outside but waves came in all directions - that meant some killer launch ramps! Sailing alone so no loops but worked on table-tops - a couple of decent ones I think. Still can't gybe :oops: .

    Nice all day session. Wind came and went but was pretty solid for the most part. Lit up a few times on a flattened 4.8 and also slogging a few times as well. Some nice ramps but I can never seem to hit them with any speed at this beach. Lost my rig on one jump :shock: Had a jibe breakthrough today. Something finally clicked and I was nailing some nice powered up jibes. Hope I remember what it was!

    All in all a good session pour moi.

    Wahoo, 1st good session with the Seatrend. :P Also 1st ever decent Willows sail. "New" Ezzy Wave 5.0 very nice: downhaul slipped, overpowered for awhile and struggling, Capt Ahab checked I was OK (thx), went in downhauled more and outhaul, then fun fun fun :lol: Had to cut it short and go back to work. No jibes :roll: but a couple close. Got to work on rolling the rig to outside before flip. Spun out quite a lot, probably too stiff legged with fear!

    got to willows just as Mr Ahab was coming off the water. luckily wind came up a bit. rode the puffs. off and on planing. worked on some old-school stuff like tacks, helis, fin-first, 360s. tried to pop the board off flatwater and made some progress. haven't been at willows for awhile - cool to be 5mins from dinner.
