Pat-
As my friends will testify, I'm not by any means a "hot" sailor. I basically
nail 80% of my flat water jibes. 50% of my chop jibes, and $100% of my
dunk-jibes.  I've been working on lay-downs and have never completed a
duck-jibe w/o eating alot of sail. Every time I come home I'm covered
in bruises,cuts scrapes and a great big GRIN.

	Basic skills that the guys at ABK say ya need before going for
it. a) jumping in the harness lines. helps ya get higher and maintain
control of rig
    b) ability to "chop-hop", ie. the ability to get board out of
water w/o just relying on a nice ramp.  Basically this is a board control
thing, if you're passive in your jumps you probably don't yet have the
feel of tucking the board up under your butt.
To do it:(remember, consider the source .. I haven't made one)
pick a nice, small pice of chop/ramp in 4.5-50 conditions, jump it
, close your eyes and crank as hard as ya can on your back hand. No
need to throw weight up and over, just CRANK on the back hand. You
will rotate, as the clew passes thru the wind you will literally just
get shoved over. If you're alive when it's all done you've just survived
your first cheese roll attempt. Next time open your eyes :-).
 As far as what NOT to do. What all the guys I know who can make
'em say "ONCE you commit, NEVER NEVER let go". They claim that
if ya let go you'll lose equipment in the confusion and could get hurt.
The other thing I can say is "keep your legs tucked", you'll spin
around faster, and you're not as likely to sprain a knee on splash
down.

See ya

to have some boardsailing with mod. to fresh expected. Our TVs does provide
coverage and I will post for all (unless I get responses otherwise). Also
someone may be able to give more detailed info. Our OZ rep. is better suited

Thanks everyone for the advice. However, I've made my choice and I did
not take any notice of anybody. I didn't even take my own advice.

I have bought a used (but looks like new) Stretch Epoxy Race Board. By all
accounts, it will be fast. The dealer tells me modern race boards are easy
to sail (I don't believe it) and it should be OK in lighter winds considering
it is fairly floaty but only 9'0" long with a rounded nose.

Rainbow will make up a Tuttle Box fin to order based on my weight and I will
add the adjustable DaKine Racelite straps.

In the end, I made my decision based on what other people sail locally, and
the better sailors all have either a late model Seatrend or other lightweight
dedicated slalom board. Stretch seeHopefullyI'll be able to give a report next week.

Has anybody out there tried the Wadadli Windsurfing Resort in Antigua?
I would be interested to hear how it compares to Aruba and just generally
wether or not people would recommend it?

When are the best conditions (15-20+ winds)?
Are there fairly shallow waters as in Aruba? How are the lessons?
Whats the rental gear like ? I don't really want to transport all my gear
How are the accomodations?
What am I likely to spend on meals, beers etc, etc, etc.......

Any feedback would be much appreciated.

I saw one at the local Mistral dealer in San Diego. There are going to be two
versions (CHS and ???) and they had the lightweight (17 lbs) version (but not light $$$ - 
they wanted $1500+!). 

I think it is going to be a very fast board, for flat water...
Hope to demo one in Maui...

I have been using a variation on this technique for some time now. I have found
that it is sufficient to wrap the downhaul around the harness hook several times
times, crossing over itself each time, and it will hold without having to knot
it. This saves the hassle of untying and retying the bowline each time you need
to move it.

BTW has anyone seen/used the North ergo trim system. This is a ratchet winch
type of thinigy that slips into your mast base and enables you to tension the
downhaul by pushing a lever. According to North "Each movement tensions the
luff by about 2cm and removes all wrinkles associated with bad rigging". It
retails over here for about 15 pounds (~US$30).

I'm not sure where you got this idea, but it is incorrect here in Nebraska, and
as far as I know, also incorrect in Kansas, Colorado, and Wyoming.

It is true that U-Haul puts a notice about a 45 mph speed limit on their small
trailers, but I suspect that is a result of too many people overloading them.

I have the little wheels you saw shreded, and have (so far) had no troubles
after 2 years. Remember, if you keep the air pressure at the recommended level
for the tires (65 lb for the 8"), and don't overload them, they should do
pretty much just as well as a car tire. Board trailers tend not to weigh too
much - I can actually pick mine up when full loaded with 3 boards and masts and
6 sails.

Folks,

I've noticed recently that the upwind beach at the 3rd Ave launch area 
(San Mateo bridge) has changed from an isolated launch to really crowded. Last 
weekend I lucked out that somebody left so I could park, as there were no
spots left when I arrived.

I'd like to ask that people who use the upwind beach please park perpendicular
to the driveway so that we can accommodate as many people at that launch area
as possible. There's plenty of space at the beach and even more on the water,
but parking space is limited. No need to off-road it, but if you can, please
try to park perpendicular.

Thanks,

I weigh myself after each session and try to make sure I'm NEVER less than
4 lbs less than I should be (about 210-212 at the end of a day).  If I'm less,
I switch to a cooler wetsuit and that seems to do the trick.  Plus, I try NOT
top sail over 2 hours without comming in for some water and a soda.  With a
15-20 minute break, I find I sail much better and it is worth the slog to and
from the wind at Coyote or whereever I'm sailing - even the Powerlines on a
weekend where you might have to wait 15 minutes in line to get out.

I beg to differ - see my other post. I regularly pull my trailer at 70-75 on
the interstate for 5 hours on the way from Lincoln NE to Lake McConnaghy and
have had no problems. After 2 seasons the tires are showing very little wear.

Guess what!? For '93 BIC is eliminating the awful graphics it used on the 
Presto and other boards. You did not hear it from me (things are not set in
concrete yet) but most boards will have white graphics of some sort. This
means they will not be plain white but the graphics used will be mostly white in
color.

They are also coming out with an ultra fast slalom board measuring 8'10" with
95 liters of volume. In a couple of weeks I'll know the weight and a bit more
about the '93 stuff.

BIC is definitely getting interested in creating boards for the race oriented
sailor as apposed to just recreational (Yiippee!!). I'm happy because BIC boards
are durable, inexpensive and carry excellent warranties.

Adios!

When I decided to buy an Electric Rock, everybody recommended that I buy
a different mast foot.  The agreement was so unanimous (including the owner
of the shop where I got the board) that I followed the advice, and have
never used the Bic mast foot once.  Maybe that's the reason?  Another
advantage of my Windsurfing Hawaii mast foot is that it's slightly lower,
if you are really keen on closing the gap (does 1 inch make all that 
difference?)  I don't think I really miss the quick release.  Separating
board and rig is pretty easy anyhow.  --Luigi

Last Saturday a guy had one of the North downhaul levers which seemed to 
work OK if your sail needs a LOT of downhaul. The main thing is that the
lever is clumsy and you only get an inch of downhaul per 'moverment'. After
each 'movement' you have to tighten the downhaul rope around the lever.
It is all pretty clever, but it would be nice if it was racheted so that
you wouldn't have to re-adjust the downhaul rope each time.

Last weekend I was in City Front Sailboards to buy another pair of Fiberspar
booms when I overheard Steve Yong telling a potential Chinook boom purchaser
that Fiberspar booms are starting to come back with broken front ends.  I
dismissed it as sales-speak, but late on Saturday at Coyote Point the Nautix
front end on my old Fiberspar booms broke while I was on port tack.  I was
able to get back in easily with just the one side, in fact I could have
probably hooked in and got in the straps, but I didn't want to push my luck.
I examined the break when I got back in and it looks like the aluminum arms
on the front end broke, the carbon tubes themselves are ok.  Someone on
the beach told me that mine were the second pair of broken Fiberspar booms
he had seen that day.


The local shop owners around here are giving pretty good service, they're
handling the warranty returns and giving new sets of booms to people who
break them under warranty.  I had a Fiberspar back end that was starting
to give me problems (notches and rings were wearing out and starting to slip)
and Sausilito Sailboards gave me a new one.

Well Kirk you have my sympathy, but I have to tell you that the season is drawing
to a close and eight weeks from now I don't expect to see too much wind,
so I guess you will be on your

This is the time of year when I regret not sailing earlier in the season because
panic sets in when I realize the best of the season is probably over and there are 
only a few weeks left.
