Hi Sophie, I don't know about Miama in March but we are going to Cocoa Beach on the Banana River (near Cape Canaveral) at the end of January. They have sails...
Congrats on the store. I loved the deals that were to be had a 2nd wind, and I'm glad to hear you're planning on holding up the used products sales plan. To me...
These images have to be old, Bjorn is sponsored by North now, not NP ... steve utaski 1415 western ave, suite 509 seattle, wa 98101 mobile: 206.290.4783 ...
Looks like some strong west wind is shaping up for this sunday at a good time (around 1.) What's the deal with sailing there at this time of year? Is it colder...
I would be interested in seeing how this panns out for you I have a 5/3 with 1m booties and no gloves and no hood? And I am relearning me waterstart, also...
If you go to Lake Wenatchee, you'll be rigging in the snow. Temps will be around freezing or colder in the heat of the day. They are calling for a low in the...
... Ralph earns some hardcore points just thinking about this. I've windsurfed at 39F in 50F water. It was hard to stay warm, but I didn't think I was going to...
If you what to check Lake Wenatchee water temprature, wind and web cam, go to the following link: http://home.comcast.net/~rmakela/jpeg/index.htm It is awsome....
You gotta be crazy to even consider it. And I'm talking as a guy who goes up to Rimrock in the spring. --Rick...

I'll look into heading north then....the water is around 26 and so is the air. Also I think I see ice in the water via the webcam, but I'm not sure. Oh...
... I'd guess the lake is still warmer, but it is typically colder by the end of December. The "go North" forecast isn't looking so good now. I'm hoping the...
I haven't chimed in on this group, but we have a cabin over at the lake and I run the weather site and webcam referenced below. The webcam picture from...
I'm going to be in Portland/the gorge this Monday and Tuesday. Any hope for wind? Is it still sailable? Got a promotion 5 mil drysuit, 5 mil booties, and...
Right on Rocky. How can it be 26 and not ice? Well water is most dense at about 33-4 degrees and becomes less dense at 32.. If that wasn't the case, then ice...
Too true that 45 degrees is cold, especially in fresh water. When the air temp is 32 or below and I actually WANT to sail, I put my old gasket drysuit on top...
MM5's opinion for tomorrow is rather low... The system is weak and passing by too far north. Probably won't leave much of even westerlies at central sound. But...
Go to the NWS Portland site: http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/pqr/ and click on the town of Stevenson on the map and look at the forecast. It looks like east wind for...
Sophie, Winds in Miami are frontal driven, not thermal, so winds there are similar to Puget Sound - They depend on the weather. The attached link to the South...
For you glass board fans, Clark Foam has recently shutdown his plant due to California EPA concerns. Clark Foam is the reason surfboards and high wind...
I read that too. It would make sense that such a dangerous work environment would eventually get closed down in California. I expect that a new source will...
... (mailto:marcus@...) ... To me this looks like an opportunity for somebody like Cascade or Open Ocean to step in and fill the void. --Rick...

You needed a big sail at the Ditch last night. 3.2 was about right in the light winds. We had one dark spot when one of the lights went out. I'll have to...

... These guys probably use Clark Foam. In any event I don't think they make foam blanks. One thing we windsurfers don't always realize is that surfing is a...
Somebody, maybe Open Ocean, has (or had) warehoused dozens of foam blanks in a building directly across the street from the post office in Bingen. I know this...
