Hey Josh. It's Killbear Provincial Park, near Parry Sound. I go camping there with my family every year and take gear with me just in case the conditions are ok. The launch is dicey, out of a small cove, and the rocky shoreline allows little room fo…

Almost completely off topic


I just had to post this photo of me riding this wave produced by FlowRider. The thing was on display at the Ex. What a rush. I guess my experience on a kiteboard and surf board came in handy because a lot of the other people trying it had real trouble getting up and riding. It would be cool to have in your… Continue

Near perfect

I would have been content with 16M cruising but it turned out to be great 12M conditions at Port Weller tonight (Tuesday). Rock solid. Had to depower the kite a bit. Some nice wave faces at a couple of the sand bars closer to shore for ripping and slashing. Some nice swells farther out for big boosting. A local guy had tried earlier with his 16 and gone home then he came back for the fun with his 12. There was still a bit of a breeze when the sun went down.

Port Weller Friday

Port Weller was good today (Friday). The westerly direction made it just enough side on for some breathing room from the beach. A few riders but not too busy. Satisfying overall even though a bit up and down. When I arrived at 4 the wind died a bit so I rigged my 16. Then it picked up... so you should always have somebody at the beach pumping up a big kite! I was the last one leaving at 7 when a local guy arrived. His wife drove to meet him at the beach and launched his kite for him. Nice! What… Continue

Turkey Tuesday

Rocked Turkey Point for a nice, solid ride on Tuesday night. Beautiful side- to side-onshore direction from the north east. And mild: I felt over-dressed in a steamer. Rode almost till 9 o'clock!

Hi Ted

There is a virus that went through hotmail. It accesses your contact list, then deletes everything in it. I stopped using that email account because I was getting over 140 emails a day that were junk. Sorry about that.

Hello Ted: I don't think there is a "safe" one. It's looking like Friday might be the day this week...LP?

LP should be great SAturday. I'm home right now and it is sunny and windy out. Yesterday afternoon LP was great. Dead onshore wind and solid 12m day. Tomorrow should be nuclear. I hope my 9m will be small enough...otherwise....I'm a spectator on the beach.

thats great to hear Ted! it's nice too see guys pushing their level of riding and progressing rather then just going out and mowing the lawn (ie. going back a forth all day). next time were out together i will follow you around a bit while you trying them and i'll give you a few pointers to make sure you stomp them!

Awesome. That'd be great. I wonder if Turkey Point might fill in on Saturday.
