Sandbanks - Back Loop (attempt)206 viewsWe lived about an hour away from a place called Picton, which had a Provincial Park called Sandbanks. Wavesailing at Sandbanks there can get truly world class - real down-the-line, although those days are few and far between - kind of like JR. Gdawg
Twigg Backyard204 viewsI was blessed to grow up living right on the water in Kingston, Ontario. We'd sail about a 80 days a year (April - Oct), right out of my back yard. This scene was fairly typical in the summer with all manner of gear strewn through the yard.1 commentsGdawg
Everett Pt156 viewsJust near my house we had a rock point that got decent waves. We didn't really know how to go frontside back then so all we cared about was jumping.Gdawg
G-Gybe172 viewsMy favourite picture from my youth. I built the bright orange board when I was 14. My dad worked at Dupont so he scored me some Kevlar which seemed like it would be a good thing to make a board out of (its not). Board came out pretty good considering it was made by a 14 yr old and started me down the road of composites engineering.Gdawg
Ice Sailing157 viewsThis one was from the early days of our ice sailing experiments. Not a bad ice year, but sometimes we got it absolutely perfect. In later years, we got the boards figured out better with skateboard trucks, great bit steel blades etc. Friggin' fast to be sure.1 commentsGdawg
Ice Sailing146 views4/3 Steamers that weren't even close to warm, open palm mits, and an abundance of youthful stoke. This was probably in March and we were so amped to do anything remotely connected with windsurfing, that it seemed like a good idea to go swimming around in the ice by my house.Gdawg
Raf Cam Dorks154 viewsMe and my friend Simon were so stoked 'cause we got these matching Raf-Cam slaloms. We figured we looked like we were on some team or something1 commentsGdawg| 10 files on 1 page(s) |
