A blog about a group of windsurfers and other water sports enthusiasts, and their friends. Established 1993.

He’s baaaaaaack…

Most of the time James successfully passes amongst us appearing as a talented but garden variety young scientist and windsurfer.    He has a blog in which he chronicles his adventures with windsurfing, the pursuit of a doctoral degree, and his dad.

But there is a Mr. Hyde to his would-be Dr. Jeckle, who sometimes emerges on a windless night with mad ravings about windsurfing minutia and detail that would drive Aristotle to drink.   I last chronicled the monster when it appeared in January, but the time has returned  to restate the horrible truth:  James is crazier than I am.

Behold  “Types of Windsurfing Racing” in which Crazy James bombards us with hundreds (or a dozen, give or take) charts, photos, diagrams, and his unique original artwork.  A man who has to register his spreadsheets as lethal weapons, James reasserts himself as the bull goose windsurfing nerd blogger.  I’m proud to link to him.

    Thanks! As a proud nerd, I consider this an honor. My post about racing is what happens when you give me two weeks of vacation with no wind.
    BTW- They gave me my doctorate in marine science a few weeks ago… But I guess I can’t help working on my doctorate in windsurfology. 🙂

    YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY STILL IN A ‘WINDLESS SITUATION’ – WELL IT’S STILL THE SAME HERE TOO. DO YOU THINK THERE IS A CONSPIRACY AGAINST US?
