[quote cpierce]How is the paddle board in the wind?[/quote]
It can be quite frustrating in the wind. The good thing is that where I go lots the wind will be at my back on the way back to shore and I can get away from it sometimes. If it is to strong I can't launch.
With it at your back it is way fun. An absolute blast for sure. I am going to do the shuttle thing at least once this summer. I think I got a drop and pick up spot dialed in for this watching the likely patterns all summer.
I took some footage of going downwind where you see how much ground you cover but it really was kind of boring to put in this one. I am going to make another and will include some of that in it. This board will take a windsuf mast and sail so I will probably play with that at some point.
The fish do take you for a ride. That was some of my original thoughts, "I am going to get some video of one of this big pigs taking me for a ride" but the footage isn't all that good. There is one clip in there you can see it some. Mostly not enough percepective to really see what is happening.
