Sounds great, get some rides and pics and share! We got both the Clinton Lakes covered! Reid, you should put weather link for Kansas Clinton Lake on the site so we can checkout the condition our windsurfing brothers in Kansas are having, I am going to take a road trip out there soon if I can spot the right window, would be nice to have a Friday -Sunday wind event, then could leave Thursday evening get three days and return on Sunday.

These two pictures pretty much sum up todays sailing: flailing about & crashing. It also wasn't very windy....like they promised it would be. (cue single tear)

Good to see everyone getting on the water. I had limited time so didn't get to socialize except for with Jenn's crew helping me out with finding my cell phone. Senior Moment? It was good to see Reid, Glen, Rick and Perry Windsurfing, Jenn, did you get out? We had a guest, but didn't get your name hope you got some good rides.

Great day at the lake. Some nice group shots today. It was a gusty day on the 4.7 with 95 L. Water felt like it got cooled off by the cold overnight temps of late(felt 55 ish). I was lit on the 4.7 at The Narrows. It was a long day. Got a lot of sailing in and shot a lot of pics.

Nice images Ried. Btw, my sail was a 5.7 Super Shape Northwave NX not a 5.3. And the board was a Goya 125.
