Kevin at Windsurfing Parksville should be able to help out. I believe his Phone number is in this article.

I believe Kus may have experienced one of these Qualicum winds for his last session. You got to be on them fast cause they can shut off just as fast!

Yup...proud of you Tony! Way to represent!

Love the shots from your heli Tim! Since you live so close to the beach at San Pareil hope to see you down there flying soon! I would be curious to see how strong a wind you can fly in?

While the GMC is a nice van the roof design sucks for carrying windsurf gear unless you don't mind having it all inside. Would be better suited for a kiter.

If you can afford gas these are comfy for the lake. Makes weekend getaways easier then tenting too.

Very funny!!! I think you covered it all there! Nice work Ian.

Not sure how serious "I" was when "I "suggested doing this but when someone says "Oh this I have to see! Let me get you a chair." you kind of have to go through with it. After or during happy hour anything is possible! :D Sadly...one unfinished Gin and Tonic was spilled...

It's important to measure the chair you think you'll be using too..

Yes so many good memories of poodle Dave, Nitnat and the La Ventana too. Last time we saw Dave windsurfing was when Sharon and I spent the winter of 04 in LV. I think he was still sailing till a few short years ago. Not fair for anyone so active and health conscious to have their life cut short by d...

Hey dwd bring that suit to the lake this weekend might be good for Luke next year. Already got him one for this season!

Sorry about posting last years video. I was looking for a used one.

Gwind, the post with the weather station mounted to it may be in concrete and doesn't look at all rotten....except at the top. Not sure about under the ground. It certainly doesn't feel like it is in any danger of falling over soon. But go ahead and replace it anyway...if you want!
