The very, VERY last time!

Today, Wabigoon Lake is frozen over completely eliminating the possibilty of another ride on our windsurfing gear. Woodette and Strat were out windsurfing for the 'very last time' this past Tuesday as seen in the video above. When the video was taken, the water was blistering cold, the air temp/winchill factor was REALLY cold, and I for once didn't mind standing on the dock watching! Surfy even got on the water after her work shift for a quick session as well. A really fun filled learning season has come to an end!

What a ride

I just got an email from my server which told me that I've exceeded my monthly limit for bandwidth. I'll have to start uploading the videos to YouTube and link to that I guess.
If your watching the video multiple times, just right click on the video then 'save as' to your desktop or wherever to help me out with my overlimit problems. Thanks!!

I can't even get it to work so I know I'm not using up too much "whatever" it is we're using.

Hey Surfdudes, just got my new formula board shipped the other day, it arrived busted from the shipping, so I got to fix it before I can use it, tomorrow would have been a great day... Oh well, some fiberglass work will be on the menu for tomorrow, and perhaps Friday will be the first day out on it... It is a used Mike's Lab ML101 (same as Arden's) got it for $500 from a guy in California, including shipping.. Also got 3 big sails 10.7, 11.0 and a 11.5, might sell two of them, they are Kevin Pritchards old sails and Phil McGain, so some spirit lives with them hopefully.... Talk soon, when are we going to Hatteras? ??? I am ready whenever....

Awesome you finally got your new board and sails with great Karma! I would hold on to those!
November has been kind to us and we could get out on the water a few more times! Can't wait for another, hopefully early windsurf season with all of you again!!!

I write from italy and I practice windsurf too.It is very hard in this condition. Which was the temperature water/air? Some friends practice on the lake but the water is no so cold.
You are very keen on

Aloha Aloa! Nice to see a comment from Italy! Very cool.
The water temperature was around 2 degrees celcius. The air tepmerature this day was only 4 degrees celcius, so windsurf conditions for the brave! Actually, these conditions are for CRAZY people, that's why I stayed on the dock and watched!!

I love Italy and would love to go back and surf on Lago di Garda!
