From 3 fins to no fins

Whilst the rest of the windsurfing world are adding fins it seems like Starboard are taking them away see http://chinookleucate.wordpress.com/2010/03/31/starboard-no-fin-concept/

As for the local scene there's finally been some decent wind and sailed with the 4.7 and 5.3 the last couple of days. Tuesday evening was good, very good with it being cross off 4.7 and over mast high in the sets - the swell seemed to come out of nowhere as it started off at only head high in the sets and the 2hrs later it was spitting people out all over the place - and by contrast the Wednesday started out with a solid 4-6ft and 2hrs later we were reduced to wind chop. Hopefully will get some pics from Carter and maybe Pierre. The forecast for the Easter break is looking good with some forecasts like Magicseaweed showing wind everyday. Hopefully we'll get a couple of days if not more on the water.
