by winning the first race of the 2007 us windsurfing slalom national championship, i was leading the championship for a few minutes...all i needed to do was keep getting bullets and i'd be the champion :-) the high winds and maytag washing machine style chop proved a hard beast to tame causing even the best to go for a swim occasionally. i certainly had a lot of fun racing!
slalom racing today. listen to andreas macke, bill wier, soheil and ron kern talk about the action.

third day of racing. nice 10 ho! conditions in a mild ebb on san francisco bay. race started near the club, to a mark below the gate for a windward mark, then to a mark off the north tip of treasure island and then back to the club to finish. conversations with the top finishers including seth besse, eric christensen, andreas macke, karen mariot, junior peter botha and more. a few collisions occured on the race course including one that drew blood and tore big chunks out of formula boards. special cameo conversation with the infamous 'larry' of crissy field who has a generous offer to teach any women how to water start.
