I was riding at Cherry Beach in Toronto on Sunday, October 5. I did
a down winder away from the rest of the kiteboarders; I landed my
kite and placed my board by the edge of the beach. I proceeded to
untangle my lines and wrapped my kite. When I turned back to pick
up my board it was gone. To make a long story short a dog walker
and some other spectators informed me that some guy without a
wetsuit picked up my board and walked towards the parking lot, he
got into his truck and drove off.

My board was a 2001 Lightwave Pitbull Editions, 147 white and green
with Hawaiian flower pattern on the bottom with 3 inch Rainbow fins
on the heel side and plastic fins on toe side. The foot straps were
more expensive then the board, Sling Shot adjustable plate foot
straps. I had a Hawaiian Island Creation sticker and a Kailua
Beach sticker on the board. I know this person that took it is not
a kiteboarder, but I am expecting him to sell it to a shop or
another rider or he might even just keep it for a coffee table.
Please keep a lookout for this board and email me
kitesurfing123@.... I know it's a piece of shit board but it
is the idea that someone did this to me that upsets me the most. I
always see everyone leaving boards around I don't expect to find it
I just want to let people know in big city beach parks you have to
keep a lookout on your equipment.
