After two days of running around the island getting nearly twenty boards, a dozen sails of varying brands and sizes, and chatting with all the locals, the WindSurfing test team had its first full day of testing yesterday at Kanaha. Winds were a steady 20-25. I was comfortably overpowered on a 5.7 - the rest of the test team used sails from 4.5 to 5.5. Big sail award of the day goes Carl Spiess from Canada, who held down a 6.2 until it got really windy.
Joining us for a longish weekend is Florida Technical Editor Alex Stankie - (his pop's an airline pilot, so he was able to hitch a ride out for free - although not in the board bag he's pictured in here - he actually came First Class!)
Now we're sitting at the test house, having some breakfast, and getting ready for another day of testing - sweet! Aaron, Alex and Jenny H. from Hood River.

Josh, Tell Carl the HIHO crew from NC says hello. And tell him we saw his picture in the lounge at the Solo Sports camp. Looking forward to more reports, Mac
I will let him know!
Now that we've got some board testing under our belt, I'm hoping to work on some videos.
