I've been in contact with the Dr. in Santa Cruz. His procedure looks the best to me but Canadian ENT's are telling me otherwise. Also if you have complications from a US procedure and have to get put on expensive antibiotics you could be footing the bill on top of what you've already paid.

I sailed dingy's in Kingston for three summers. My father was one of the founders of CORK. Awesome place to sail. Warm fresh water and great summer wind! You should participate in CORK.

JR's logo is pretty nice on the home page. Any chance we can find a permanent home on the web page?

Mainland Mexico kiteboarding stinks. I have traveled the whole coast by road. Only places I got out was one day in Mazatlan, one day in Barra De Navidad, and one day between PV and Barra.

Boardshorts would make a nice look. Suck it right in around the waist and bring it down to the knees.

Baggy. What's with the snowboard look. The jacket not being attached to the pants until the chest leaves a huge sea anchor to get caught up during bails, especially since the harness goes underneath. Fashion not function. Go with proven O.R. functionality.

Johnny Reid logo photo anyone?

Does anyone have a good clear photo of the logo that JR used to drive around with and put on everything he owned? I would really like to have a shot of it.
