Michael Pew took 381 photos of me windsurfing Creve Couer the day after Hurricane flooded Creve Couer last fall.  Chris, How can I get them on the web site.  Some are awesome!  I just figured out how to email this site.  I can down load to a c d to somone more technical.  Some of these pics are what windsurfing in st. louis is all about. Got some real fast runs captured.  The pics are of me on my mistral compteition board with a 7.5 gaastra sail.  I like sails too big for the conditions.  I need a bigger sail.  I have been way faster on my heavy skinnier mistral maui board when I got a 30 mph gust  while going 45 degrees down wind.  I was going so fast I thought the maui board was going to explode.  it was hitting the waves so hard and fast it sounded like a jack hammer.  I really thought the board would explode but I dug in and held on for dear life.  It was insane and it was incredibly awesome.  Windcather, Ted.   Chris thank you for the sail. please let me know.
