Got out to Stevenson around noon on Saturday. It looked pretty windy, but there were only a half dozen cars there, so I guess it had recently picked up. I...
I sailed Doug's on Saturday from 12:30 to 4. It was 5.2 then 4.7. When I left the wind was coming up even stronger but it seemed to get gustier as the day...
Yep, that was me. Wind came up really fast around 10 AM... great direction for Home Valley, very steady shore-to-shore 4.2 conditions early (although I...
Never blew way out east on Sunday, but Dougs turned out to be great around 3:00 if you were there. Dude's hooked up on 4.2-4.7 range. ... From: gshanewood To:...
Ahhh, forgot to mention... best thing was sailing in my shorty.... prolly the last time I do that until next season. Good-bye shorty season '06... : ( ... ...
I just upgraded my gear and have the following gear for sale. The gear is well used, but it is great for somebody who wants to get a friend into sailing...
2004 Fanatic Goya PM (Pro Model) 81 Wave board. This board really rips on waves. It is in near perfect condition, extremely light and turns on a dime. This...
Hello Gorgewindsurfers, Please post your favorite Gorge pictures in the "Photos" folders. I'm running out of new material for the ever-rotating homepage photo....
Looking encouraging for this afternoon out east. I'm going to head that way. Supposed to be best east of Dalles. I'll probably try The Wall if that is the...
Wish I could go but just got out of day surgery. Dr say can't get my nose wet for a week. But I just will not get my head wet. Maybe Monday. Mike Baker ...
Hi Mike, Nose surgery sounds like fun - been there myself years ago. The wind did eventually come up at The Wall - around 3:30PM. I sailed for an hour or so...
... The Hatch was good on Friday - gusty 4.0 - from 1 to 5 or so when someone pulled the plug on the wind and I, and others, had to swim in. Other than the...
So I just looked at iwindsurf and all meterologically reviewed forecasts are gone alluvasudden.!! Why would they pull the rug out beneath the proverbial feet...
OK, now that iWindsurf has quit forecasting for the year, I have a question. What is the easiest way to guess what the wind is going to do in the gorge. I have...
In Same boat here. The least they could do is give fair warning! Maybe George will help out from time to time by offering some timely tips when there's a...
Iwindsurf has got that "wndbow" graph that gives a pretty good indication what's going to happen with the gradient (but not always accurate).. I found it's...
I really wish iWindsurf would give us more warning of when the forecasts will stop. They are still forecasting for other locations - doesn't seem fair...
Thought I would post a sailing report. Got to Swell around 1:30, rigged a 4.2 and 70 L board. Two other cars there. The wind had just come up - the swell...
Around 3pm on Sunday I was watching the wind come up at Mosier from my living room. There was a sailboat that was going downwind towards The Dalles. I noticed...
Wow, that's an amazing story. I'm glad everyone came out of it OK. Its good to hear that windsurfers were able to react quickly and be the first responders to...
Looks good out there already at HV.... Stevenson looks a bit patchy early this AM, but sure to fill in around noon. Not a really strong wind yet, but still...
I sailed for a couple of hours at Rooster Rock on 5.7m + Fish. Some folks were out on 5.2m, but there were some lulls where I blasted past them. Only about 4...
I had a good day there myself.(5.6, more up than down, 90% planing) A lot lighter wind that I expected it to be. This made for great speed run and jibes....
Looked at Rooster early on the way out. Didn't appear that the long walk to the water would be rewarded so went on to Stevenson. Launched at Bob's and headed...
Yep, it was nice for awhile on the 4.7 at Stevenson. I was trying to reach B-17 and beyond, but never quite made it... one of my battons broke, rigged sail...
Had a nice session at Stevenson today - 5.7m + 120L - but I got a little more excitement than I bargained for. Sailed all the way upwind to the second red...
Glad to see you came through ok!Remember your lessons well,when 'true' easterly season is upon us(gusts to 50;40 deg air and water). You don't want to have to...
