Hey Isobars,
I saw a brand new quiver of featherlites at Northwave. They seemed to have your name on them. But we really need to talk about color selection......

Yeah, I know ... they'd fit right in on The Bay, wouldn't they? But they are freaking VISIBLE from clear across the river and from tugboat pilot houses. I've used those colors for almost 20 years. Who the hell wants black and white ANYTHING?
If you're "closetly" Jonesin' over them, I'm swapping my same-color 2010 ZX-SEs in for those tomorrow.

Actually I was just stopping by to say Hi to Chris (now that I'm almost settled in). He did say you had a new set from last year (ZXL's). But my 2006 and 2009 ZXL's are still in great shape. I'm thinking about adding a 5.2 featherlite to my collection however since my 5.2 gets the most use.
Funny Chris said that you have had the same color for years Personally I went with blue for a while, and now red
Oh yeah, if you are a CGWA member (and probably are), I'm running for the board this fall (trying to get involved with gorge windsurfing now that I live here) and could use some votes |

Buy a 5.2 F-lite and you can retire most of your ZX-Ls. I'm guessing I will be able use it for something like 80% of the windy days here all year.
Chris is off by a year. I replaced my ZX-Ls with ZX-SEs a year ago.
Sure, I'll vote for ya. Guess I'll have to find out how to do that.

Ahhh-ha, so your choice of yellow and pink sails must be somehow connected with you coming out of the closet and expressing your feminine mystique?
Is this what you're saying here? |

Yellow and pink is perfect.....don't be such homophobes....real men are so secure in their masculinity that they can rock those colours no problem. |
