      Thanks for the great session Doug! Intense but great fun sailing in that much wind.

      I was a little surprised that we got off the water with our gear and ourselves in one piece! My arms certainly needed a lot of stretching in the following days.

      Looking forward to seeing the pictures, and the next session.

      Liquid smoke on the water.  At times is obscured the view of the parkway all the way across Long Pond.  I would ditch, or get low in the water to keep my gear from being ripped from my hands.

      Art doing some big wind sailing before dinner.

      Long Pond wind blown scum.  I drove around with this on my car for a few days.  As hard to see through as road salt.

      Joe locked in and blazing.

      Darn Tree!  Scotty lofted a few nice floaty jumps as things ramped up.

      Isaac is retro cool.  He held it down the most when it got super nuclear.  Some nice jumps (see the photo gallery page).  That beauty MW5 was rigged super ugly.

      Doug ripping in a “lull”.  Made the jibe after this one.

      Not a crash!  Seriously.  I was in the water riding it out when a big gust came along and at the top of a swell and ripped the gear from my arms. I chased it for half a minute.
