Mike,

You forgot to take a picture of me whiteknuckled hanging on to a 3.4. Amazing to watch people throw huge air and freestyle in that much wind.
Great photos!

Ya know, I wish the mags would print more pics like the ones on this link rather than the typical latest line up in a PWA race or some unobtainable move by the pros. The one panel of shots on this link kicks ass on the last three edittions of Windsurfing. Not that I don't like pics of dudes dropping into huge Jaws, but these shots are just of alot of no names, talented no names, having a blast in epic conditions. I can relate to this so much more than most the stuff in the mags. It's like the old issues of WindTracks.

Outstanding photography, Mike. I was there and you captured it, man. Agreed, this kicks butt on 95% of WS Mag photos.

Nice pics. Love the pic of Dale Cook going huge. He looks more a low flying aircraft than windsurfer. What a day, forecast the night before was calling for light easterlies. I just kept rigging down all day and finally lacked the strength to rig my 3.3 after 2 hours on the water on a 3.7.

You are welcome to the low resolution versions on the web. If you want a high resolution version of one of the images suitable for printing mail me and we can work out something.

Thanks all of you for the nice comments. There are more photos at:
