Good call. It was a Robertson 44 actually!

I was at Nitinat Sunday, it was blowing really hard until about 3 PM. I snapped this shot as I was jumping over this guy. http://www.kitesurfer.ca/images/bigair.jpg I then caught a really big gust http://www.kitesurfer.ca/images/bigair2.jpg I am still waiting to come down. Fog bank rolled in around ...

It would be great to have public internet access.

I think it best to choose two days for the event. Better chance of it actually happening. If you look at the statistics, July would be the best bet for kiting. As for windsurfing there were much fewer days. Now if only I could kite . . . . .

Yes, Victoria West is the correct term. My wife is a realtor, she'll sell you a house when you get here! (Shameless plug)

Mt Washington is in fact under 3 hours with the new roads but does not compare to Whistler (Disneyland as I like to call it). There are a few backcountry spots on the island as well, the closest about an hour away. http://www.clubtread.org/kludahk.htm Other than that I think Victoria wins hands down...
