Extreme Windsurfing    -    July 15, 2008    609 641 4445/ 484 515 5758

Extreme Windsurfing GREAT PRICES, Freindly Service & NO ATTITUDE!

  Hi Everyone,
Summer is in full swing here at Lakes bay. Weathers been warm & dry, water is balmy & we've had wind (planning) 3 plus times per week. New stuff's been flying in & out of the shop. New personel on site, and I JUST got  back from a GREAT SUP wave session.  So I'm STOKED!
 
Just a BUNCH of stuff to talk about but first I gotta thank a customer/freind of mine who offered some proffessiional writting skills to me. Huck Fairman and his wife Pam were kind enough to look over my news letter, and offer some suggestions (like be more concise... I know I'm ignoring that suggestiion right now but I'll try) but in reading their work (or rework) I got 2 other ideas
 
ONE, we the windsurfing community are kinda like a "tribe" and alot of us have products & services that others of us might need from time to time. Kinda like Huck & I. I'm proposing to anyone who is interested to put up a page on my website with the names email or tel # of anyone or company assoc. with windsurfing that would like to be listed (FREE) I'll just provide a list not references or details but putting one windsurfer in touch with another everything from painters mechanics ect to guy like Huck providing consultive services. Even if you have a website or blog like our friend Matt put up an informative website bw_windsurfing : Baltimore Washington DC Area Windsurfing I know I'd prefer to deal with someone like me than pull out the yellow pages.
Basically if you are interested in listing all I need is your service, name, email website and whatever you want listed Remember I'm trying to keep this basic!
 
SECOND, Back to my buddies Huck & Pam's suggestions. They suggested I put my MOTTO at the head of my newsleter. Which got me thinking Extreme Windsurfing is kinda like a windsurfer it goes where the wind blows as opposed to say a big corporation is like abattleship parting the ocean on it's way. Pam offered some ideas and they got me thinking. Particularly This one (Extreme Windsurfing) GREAT PRICES, FREINDLY SERVICE & NO ATTITUDE! This got me thinking about WHY Linda Hodecker (my previos partner) started Extreme Windsurfing. Of course we saw that SNJ needed a good shop (2 had just closed 15 yrs ago) and with Linda around you can't help but get a FREINDLY reputation, But both Linda & I experienced a better than you type of attitude while buying windsurfing equipment. Both Linda & I were experienced & knowledgeable windsurfers, but we were commited that at EW we would listen and help our customers select equipment THEY wanted, not push what we thought was COOL.
 
 I hope you'll see that motto not just on our Newsletter
Now, actually taking the adviseI I was given (Keep it Short)

 Lots Going on SUP wise
 
We've been getting new convert pretty much daily and the Starboards ability to be sailed, paddled & surf  along with their killer designs has them the most sought after SUP's. The 11'2 and the 9'8 FISH seem to be dominating in the waves, but ther eare plenty of 12'6" devoutee's in both surf  & flatwater. Sailing (surf & Flatwater) seems to favor the 12'6. Personally I love my 12' in the surf & flatwater but I can feel the difference in glide.
 
I've been perfecting riding river waves & whitewater, been playing on boat wakes. Bunch of customers raving about sailing SUP's in flat & waves. Tom's talking about doing a moonlight cruise (w/o the booz I hope)
 
Speaking of Flatwater paddling 5 intrepid paddlers paddled in the Donny Row on Lakes bay in june. When we got to registration at the Pleasantville Yacht Club we were greeted with 15 mph head wind and big chop out on the bay. 4 of us seemed ready to settle into a great breakfast and forgo the whole paddling thing. But Tom Huetter said why not do a mile half downwinder from PT Point back to the YC. So we had to delay our breakfast order and we all (Ben Schnaibel on a 12'6, Terry Junker on a 9.8, Mark Hawks on a 12', Tom Huetter on a Mistral Pacifico 11'6" & me on a 12'6 PLUS Pete Creswell on a sea kayak)piled into vans drove up to PT point paddled as a group all the way down to the Yacht Club. Arriving to inquizical looks and questions about "Those Surfboards" Joining the interpid paddlers were Pat Smith (ground crew for the paddlers driving a car for us to get back to PT point) Murray "Burger Boy" runner & Linda Hodecker & Norma (political player in our area) joined us for a GREAT breakfast . We had an interuption when the local media wants us for some pictures but to lure us back out (to get wet...AGAIN) they offered us another breakfast and all we could eat...how can you turn that down.
 
All in all it was a great event and we hope more of you will be joinng us next year, and not just for breakfast
