I went up to Nitnat on Sunday, got there at 1:30pm....15 - 20 knots(I think) a bit lighter near the shores. Stayed until 4:15pm and then had to leave unfortunately. More than 10 waterstarts....last 5 in a row without falling or getting up and then launched. Planned the entire time.....almost made a ...

It's SE17 at Kelp Reef and I'm stuck here at work.....a couple kites out there maybe......work always gets in the way of having fun......cough, cough, ah-hem....might be feeling a little sick....HA!! :oops: It peaked at 6pm yesterday.....hopefully at least the same today! Only 1 more hour....aghhhh!...

Hey Wind Dummy Dude, I appreciate you trading me nuts for one that works with my board. I guess all the EVA soft decking adds too much height for the regular nut. I had a blast on my new GO at Gordon's on Sunday. 12 - 15 knots with times at 18 and lots of planning but no damn water starts...close a ...

Reply to : wind_dummy Hey WD, I was planning on a trip out there around Noon. If you can email me your cell/home phone# and if I cannot get hold of you maybe I'll see you at Gordons...?? I appreciate the offer of the bases. I'd like to try a couple different ones to see what is going on. Maybe it's ...

Hey fellow wind-lovers, I bought a 99' starboard go yesterday and then prompty went out and bought a mast base from Bosun's(Thanx for the info Paul) and now I'm having trouble connecting the two. The screw length doesn't seem long enough to have the nut make it down far enough to make it in the trac...

Hey WD, not that I'm out all the time anyways....but....I'm buying a '99 Starboard Go this weekend so I'll be out anytime there is even a breath of wind out there.......How's that..??

Could someone please explain the new ENV Canada pressure slope on the BWD Web Site..??

Also, what is the UTC time difference from us here on the West Coast..??

Can anyone give me a brief description of the different fin box types. I've heard of tuttle, standard, powerbox and I don't know which ones I have to get larger ones...?? I have a older mistral longboard and a Bic Samba. The Mistral fin just gets screwed in and the Bic fin slides in from one end and...

I have a couple of question about Nitnat if there is anyone still left here working until the weekend. As this will be my first trip up there.... 1. What are the rules for the campground and where you park and pitch a tent/payments...?? 2. Are there any Logging trucks on the roads Sat early in the A...

Tuesday evening was fantastic at Island View. Warm and 13 - 15 knots with 4 kiters and a few windsurfers. (BWD) you and guy you were with(sorry can't remember his name) were rigging on 6.0's, as your both much lighter than myself(220lbs) so I should probably have been on a bit bigger sail I'm guessi...

Thanx Kiteking, Sounds fantastic!!!

Does anyone have predictions for wind this weekend on the island..???

Saturday, May 31, 2003 Good Learning day at Island View. 4 kiters and 1 windsurfer(myself) 10-15 knots of wind most of the day. I spent 3 hours practicing non-planning jybes and getting comfortable in the harness. Interesting sailing as a house went by in the water. Yikes! Unfortunately, not enough...
