Every day has been just like this... Come join us!!Sailing the Canadian Hole at sunset is really fun, and the sport of windsurfing gets a bit of a shot in the arm. The shoreline fills up with camera toting tourists just checking out the sunset, and the more windsurfers out there the better! Lately there have been zero waves, so lots of the local crew have been sailing the Hole. I love it, the level of sailing is high, the social scene is great, and invariably lots of people are seeing and asking about how to get into windsurfing.
How about your local spot? Is it tucked up in a small, barely accessible cove in the middle of the woods? Or is there a restaurant perched on stilts overlooking the action all day every day? As sweet as your private little secret spot might be, maybe hitting up the ol' downtown launch (overlooked by the masses) every now and again could help bring some more visibility to the sport!

I had to go with "Nascar" for my local spot (closest to where I live at least) with Crissy Field. Always crowded with people from all over the world. The only downside is that the best action is usually a mile away from shore...
Speaking of nascar and San Fran, I sailed with the Human Catapult at Coyote Point this week. 5.3 conditions and up to waist high chop....had a blast, although it wasn't the best day by locals' standards...but while my friends and I were on Marin County side looking back over to GG bridge and San Fran, we saw tons of windsurfers and kiters gettin' it on....was a great spot for spectating....will post more later...typing from phone.
