This guy makes it look easy



When there are 30mph sustained winds, gusting to over 40 and waves 8-10 feet this guy makes it look easy.

windsurfing wed June 1, 2011

Last one off the water wins


I.M. Ducks in the evening light
Nothing like warm water, clear sky and good wind to bring out the crowds. An approaching cold front made for almost perfect conditions for a group of deserving Boardheads. The long winter and unseasonably cold spring made June 1 a welcome day.
Ask any wind addicted sailor and they will tell you that they will drop whatever they are doing and break whatever commitment they have made in order to get out on the water on a day like June 1,
But reality, we all know it doesn't always work that way, family, friends and yes even work all depend on us. Our dedication to the sport is just a symptom of a common personality trait, which is our dedication to what really matters in life.

Bonc’s Dominate Alum Creek race.


TITO CROSSES THE FINISH LINE

The Alum Creek race was held this past Saturday May 21, 2010 amid beautiful blue sky and warm wind and water. Unable to capitalize on their home field (or should I say home mud puddle) advantage the Cows were udderly humiliated by the relentless onslaught of the BONC’s far superior tactical mooneuverings. When this reporter suggested to one dejected cow that the Boncs had eaten their lunch he responded “what’s it to you, you didn’t even race.” While not technically true, I did attempt-t to race but was unable to make it to the starting line. Due no doubt to some bazaar isolated central Ohio wind phenomenon.

Winning 4 out of 5 heats, Bonc’s own TITO sent the Cows out to pasture. Way to go TITO.
