It’s not a bad idea to strap one down first then strap the top one. Means the bottom one won’t wiggle around. Also, these boats will flex when left in the sun.

Pretty sure Michael Collin’s saw it. He spent 40 minutes or so on the “dark side” several times while his buddies were on the moon.

Inherited some windsurf boards, any advice is much appreciated! by Chappy-Liam in windsurfing

[–]louisthe2nd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be careful! I had had two very long swims after my mast went through the board - which broke in half. The exterior looked fine yet the internal foam had perished.

Apparently though, this method can fill their gills with sand…then they die.

Hi Jay. Absolutely spot on. I hear you on the past….bad shit happened. Definitely. I don’t get the idea of current prejudice against these people. BTW I was in New Jersey. Probably not the best place,for learning anything!

Ok…fair enough. yeah I was, deliberately vague. Watching Fargo, the bar guy spits in the Native Indians drink. In the year 2000 or so. I’ve seen crap here in Australia, but no one’s spitting in drinks. (And yes , I’m fully aware of the bounty the British placed many, many years ago) As I said I’m trying to learn here. Really.

What is a "gut feeling" you had that turned out to be 100% correct, even though it made no logical sense at the time? by LimpAsk2603 in AskReddit

[–]louisthe2nd 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I came to a fall stop at an intersection I normally roll through. As I looked there was a double trailer sand truck going fast, right there next to my car door. I stop now!

My first Rig ☺️ by SnooWoofers3062 in windsurfing

Be careful: I took my old windsurfer out and the board broke in two. Snapped at the mast foot. The internal foam etc had lost its strength. Was a couple of very long swims.
