You fly into CC. Drive to padre island and then head south about 20 miles. Worldwinds is who I rent from. They do foils but apparently this time of year its weedy. I normally come in the spring but

Peter, I have definite;ly thought of going to Texas. Where are you at? Mike H

I try and come down here every year. 80 degrees water and air. Wind usually consistently 20 to 25. Not today (my first day) winds rains and gusts. Streets flooded. Hazardous driving conditions. No

Wow, I went to Port Kelley expecting to be alone as usual, but there were two others out there already. A crowd!! Winds were 12-17 or so and fairly steady. I went with 7.0/SR140/SAB950 and ground

Hey Jonathan, I have been experimenting with longer stiffer mast tops and shorter less stiff mast bottom halves when foiling. If the joint fits or if it can be shimmed then it might be worth a try to

I'm coming to Seattle this weekend and next weekend. I could deliver these boards to anyone who wanted to buy them. I also have every size of sail, mast extension (SDM), mast (SDM), and boom for

Thank You Jonathan ! You were on what ? I was sure that you must have been on either Super Cruiser 1700-1900cm2 foil at least because only 6m sail and you were able to still fly through the lulls. Who

Nice sailing with ya Marek. 150L - 6.0m - 1000 / 255 / 115+ -2.0° I tryed the Retro with my 460cm Lightstick mast for the first time. Stable in flight but better light wind pump to flight and

It is not a silly question at all. I bought several used sails in the past from other windsurfers that were with mold (both sails and the bags) . I treated those bags in bleach to kill the mold. They

Thanks Marek. I’m dreading the mud! But I feel ready for it with the basics at least after all the great tips. One last silly question: When do you put the sail back into their bag? Are the sail

...but it stops there. Well, you don't know unless you go out and try it. I used to sail formula at Paterson if I didn't want to drive further down to Roosevelt. It was great. However, there is a

Editorial Note: I am reposting as there was some issue with the post. Yesterday was a "change of the seasons". Marsh Park grass is no longer "green and clean". They aerated it poking holes in the

Gear: Gaastra Nitro 2 9.8m, SB Go 180L, M1000/115++/255(-2) -0.5 shim. Another great day. Jonathan R launched from Maggie on his moded board and with 6+m SW Retro and we were riding closer to Maggie

Thanks Giovanni! Doe anyone have an extra power box fin they would want to sell to get a beginner started? Cheers! Keith

Hi Glenn, I was thinking to keep the Seattle swap meet away from the popular times of the gorge swap meets. So if it was early September then it would be close to the swap meet in the gorge, perhaps

Hi everyone, I know this is a long shot but here I go. Does anybody out there have a fin and/or daggerboard that would work on my old tiga swift 325? Something from a similar board may work as

One bolt hole = Your friend is looking for a Powerbox fin. Tuttle, Deep Tuttle and old Tiga boxes have two holes for bolts.

Good morning! A friend looking to get into windsurfing just bought a used board that needs a fin. Does anyone know what type of fin is needed for the fin box in the attached pictures? Maybe a deep

I am not using an Ezzy mast and the boom is too long. The sail says 239-247 and the boom is 250-something so they are not the right sizes. I might shorten it up but that would involve cutting carbon
