Thank you.
There's a growing trend from profesional and knowledgeable instructors around here who advocate ONLY back foot first, placed between the front and the rear straps. They strongly advise against front foot on the board.
Me, I'm old school. I learned my way, by myself, before ever seeing someone waterstart from up close, before the days of videos. Front foot first in moderate winds, back foot in strap for super high winds, can't waterstart in winds less than 5. |

Obviously you were busted on the Chuck Norris source.
And now you're again saying it was all over the news that week. When it wasn't. |
Jota, I don't get "busted" ... i.e., caught fabricating anything. All these idiots who claim to have "busted me" are either lying about what I said or simply finding websites -- usually far left BS -- which contradict what I post usually based on solid support. I can't help it if your primary "news" source is MSNBC; that is your own fault. I didn't even know Chuck Norris had a website; I don't look at stuff like that from either side. I had seen many extensive reports on that issue, based on full-context -- even full-length in some cases -- Obama speeches and Chu congressional testimony, presented at least on Fox News and CSPAN. MANY such stories make the left wing media only after days to weeks of exposure on REAL news networks embarrass the hell out of them.
When I say something's been all over the news, I do not necessarily mean the far left media. You'd be astounded how much real news, backed up very extensively by full-context audio and video proof, the Obamamedia covers up and/or is caught fabricating ... by their own admission when they're caught.
You've taken this thread off topic but I did not ignore it because you're implying, without any facts to back it up, that I lied. Just like Harry Reid, you can shove that crap back where you got it in the first place. |

Why is it that he took the time to cast me and others in a negative light in his earlier 19:00 post on 8/5? I just found this thread today, and hadn't participated at all in the dialog before this post. Obviously he doesn't follow the standards he seems to be professing in his sentence above. But, that's no big surprise really given his style. One only has to look how he has stained this thread a myriad of times losing all sight of the original topic. He even managed in interject "his" kind of politics in the mix. No doubt, daviddk hit the nail on the head about isobars' narcissistic manner. He could change his name over and over, but there's no hiding who he really is. |
