Photos from my favorite windsurfing location, Omaezaki, Japan. Lived in Japan for a year and was my favorite spot.

Ah, the world renowned Robert "Brucie" Swift has escaped his "sailingjoe" alias to grace us with his "speedysailor" alias.

Brucie, where's tycoonguy these days? How about a quick visit from psychokiter?

In regards to the beach being ugly. Beach should change in the next few days with pending typhoon strike within 60 hours. Forecasted wave heights offshore is over 30 feet!

Lars: Omaezaki kicks ass! I've never been but it takes its place on the short list of places I intend to sail. Many, many World Cups took place there and were worth a great deal of prize money.

Omaezaki still ranks with the best venues in all of windsurfing. Why do you think it is that all the terrific sailors there don't band together and bring back the world cup?

Thank you so much for those awesome pictures. Very easy to view and very exciting to see.
