Lately

Backloop

We have had a few epic days already here in the Gorge.  This particular shot was taken at The Wall by Chris Boston on an overpowered 3.5 day.  I just recently sailed Arlington with perfect 3.5 wind and logo+ high swell.  It doesn’t get any better than that.  Also, I just returned from an Ezzy demo down in California at Lake Isabella, where we had some good slalom conditions.  It was blazing hot at 100 degrees, so it felt great to get into the cool lake.  We had a party on the beach and everyone was super cool, so it was a fun trip.

More soon.

Well, I have been away from Maui for about two weeks now, and I have just arrived in Hood River. I spent the last few days road tripping across the country to the Gorge (almost 2000 miles).  The weather was nice today with light west winds and sun. I am looking forward to my first days on the river. I heard the water was cold, but manageable with good rubber. There is also tons of snow on the mountains, so there should be plenty of water moving. It looks like it’s gonna be good soon!
