Ok... looks like winds up... So who's going where... sounds like Brent will be off of Aylmer Island/Aylmer. I'm debating between Britannia and Aylmer... Is...
Just checked forecasts... they suggest between SW and SSW... I can see how the fetch should be better with SSW... but for the times it flips to SW, would that...
I'm going to start at Britannia around 12 and see how it goes. If it's no good there, then I'd be up for a move to Aylmer. Anyone else heading to Briannia? ...
So who got out today? I finally got to Aylmer around 5 and it was light but I rigged anyway hoping for some wind to show. I launched and got on the water and...
Lots of people showed at Britannia. Started with Hung out riding and giving lessons. Then James and I showed around noon and went out. Paul showed as I was...
... Well, Graham was out, wu_james was out, and I was out too. I was riding my 12 takoon, and was generally powered up quite nicely. I managed to make my way...
I retrieved my board (the 2005 H-Core) after having "patrolled" the whole bay. It was drifting toward BYC. With the setting sun, it is very very hard to see...
So I edited my footage from Thursday, however, it appears that there is no more room for it in the "files" section... Can we do anything about that Hung? ...
Graham Put a small extension on that kiteloop tube. I used aa tube from an old windsurfing harness line. may have some left vut may have goven most of it away...
Good to hear you recovered it before it hit the rapids. Thanks for letting me try it. It was pretty hard for me to spot it as well with the bigger waves at...
Wu-Ja you still have to give the Ocean Rodeo a good try. Its 142 ,37, great high wind machine for you. Why don''t you come over and pick it up so you have it...
Yo BS... appreciate the offer... yes, sounds like a nice size for a smaller board for me... I would like to try it out in 25+ "true" knot weather to really...
So after a couple years of kiting, I finally decided to rig up a 5th line for my kites. All I can say is, wow, why didn't I do this sooner! :) Note:...
BS, is the Outlaw concave? Thinking this would be nice to have in a high wind board. ... 142 ,37, great ... so you ... Jeff has ... you in the ... makes ... ...
I have on older bar rigged like that. It was my first bar that I used and it worked great. Lots of depower. Thinking of going back that way as a depower strap...
Ya, these bars are quite adjustable re depower and give tons of depower. I think my B-SAFE version (not the Cruise Control) gives about 18" with the throw and...
Wish I new earlier that you were going to sell it B! Yeah, I loved that board. Tried it on our windiest day in Hatteras with lots of sizeable chop. The huge...
Well... that's a good product endorsement. Jeff, how much do you weigh again and how windy was it, if you can remember... 25+ knots? BS, can you give me your...

DK much stiffer but same out line, 142-37 I think. The Dk was a smooth ride in the chop compared to the Loose Big that is FAT 137,41 and shorter. Where as the...
Hey BS, I recall you actually preferred one of your home-made boards... I think the one Andre bought... to the Ocean Rodeo Outlaw... Can you compare these...
