Help Donate For Our Hatteras Dealers
Wednesday, 31 August 2011
Our hearts go out to our two valued shops in Hatteras. The news is pretty grim after Hurricane Irene hit this past week. These shops depend upon fall windsurfing business, and all news is pointing to limited or no access for several weeks. We’re going to put together a charity here on ezzy.com. We encourage

Summer With the AWT-Part 2
Tuesday, 16 August 2011
The second stop on the American Windsurfing Tour brought me to Pistol River, in Oregon. Pistol is always a fun place to sail because it is usually very windy. I use 3.7 or 4.2 most of the time. It’s one of my favorite places to jump. My jumping setup is a really fast 65L OES

Tuesday, 16 August 2011
The last two weeks have been the windiest of the season. Stevenson to Doug’s has had the best wind, but the eastern sites have also seen some great late day sessions. We’ve had some big days at the Hatchery and Doug’s Beach with winds averaging 30+ and huge swells. Check out some of the pictures

Summer With the AWT-Part 1
Monday, 15 August 2011
I had a great time windsurfing this summer traveling with the American Windsurfing Tour. The first stop was Waddell Creek on the California Coast near Santa Cruz. We didn’t get the best of conditions, but it was enough to run through a complete single elimination and come out with a result. I personally didn’t do

Everyone Is Here, Where Are You? – July 23, 2011
Wednesday, 03 August 2011
The word was out in late June and early July that the summer season in the Gorge was late this year. A cool and unstable weather pattern has persisted over the northwest since April, and coupled with record spring run-off in the Columbia River, many visitors had delayed their annual windsurfing trip. It’s rare that

Where were you on Nuclear Thursday? July 12, 2011
Tuesday, 12 July 2011
The talk on the beach at the Hatchery yesterday was, “where were you on Nuclear Thursday?” Every summer there are a few days that “go nuclear” and test the limits of sailors and equipment. When I arrived at Doug’s it was easy to see from the parking lot that the only three sails I needed

Sunday, 22 May 2011
Every year the weekend before the American Memorial Day weekend, our hardy neighbors from the north make their way to the Gorge to help kick-off the season. And being hardy is a requirement this spring with the cool water and record run-off in the Columbia River. Last week the US Army Corp of Engineers began

Time For an Update
Friday, 15 April 2011
The Spring sailing season has been really good here on Maui. March saw wind nearly every day, with loads of waves too. March is photoshoot season, so all the international pros come over to ride the new gear. It’s great fun to see the guys going off, but it makes for some very crowded sessions.
