What you write is true Krusty however there is an issue I can take up with it. Windsurfing is clearly a hybrid sport. Some of its culture and feeling comes out of surfing and thats where some people are coming from. Another part of windsurfing's culture comes from sailing and racing. That brings a whole bunch of baggage with it.

You also get people like me, not really that keen on surfing, though I always did it when I was a kid, body surfing and liking the beach but never into racing dingies or boats. I like windsurfing as it gives me the ability to get out on the water and do what I like without needing anyone elses help. Its about freedom.

I say F### it, and you can quote me on that.

BTW if a Chinese person said that, they'd probably be shot for it. I have no idea why they gave the honour of holding the olympics to that country. But then again, they gave it to Germany under Hitler in the 1930s.

Yay for sport! *BUUUURP*

Small fact about Hitler and the Olympics.

Hitler is the one that invented the torch relay.

Surprized me when i heard that.

why not just put fans along the side of the olympic swimming pool!

With the amount of money spent on setting up olympic venues the cost of an indoor windsurfing event would surely be a drop in the ocean. All the other sports use the same format as their international competitions so why should windsurfing not use the same as the PWA?

sailing in that crap is bad enough,falling in it could possibly kill!!!
our female 470 rep tripped on the boat ramp fell in and accidently swallowed some of the water....she was laid up for the several months and had her whole immune system shut down!!! thankfully she has recovered and is back on target for the medals...

If anyone has the chance, howabout recording it and putting it on YouTube? Or if you happen to find something online, please post it here.

Btw I am sh!tf@ced ag@!n and I'm starting to think I have an @lcohol problem...I can't remember the last time I posted on Seabreeze sober...
