It's that time of year to book off vacation and plan for some morning grease at Double D's, attractive locals serving you Dairy Queen dessert, scones at the bookshop, generally unattractive locals, a few busted teeth, a communal bottle of Fireball, Walmart, and maybe even some wind and waves.
Pistol River contest dates this year are June 18-23.
I'm waiting to hear about the SUP contest before I make my plans.
I might also check out the Santa Cruz contest again as that was a lot of fun last year. It got moved a month back to May 30-June 2, so it should be even better this time around, plus a bunch warmer. Anyone interested in that at all?
It sure feels weird planning for windsurfing since it seems like I haven't done it in forever.
Looking forward to it! Don't know my dates for sure yet, but would love to head down for the event unless everyone is trying to avoid it. Always seems to be lots of room on the water even with the event as well as a fun vibe. Want to be sure to SUP/sail with the gang, though!

Crap I haven't sailed since some time in August!!!!! (but I have 24 ski days this year as of today). And powder is returning this week to Baker.
Re Oregon.......I teach until end of June 2013 so likely early July 2015 for me?
Contest would be fun to see. Hopefully I will be done this job Im doing by the end of May to hit up Santa cruz, but either way June 17 onward is holiday time, so Im in for possibly checking out wave bash.
Stoked to brave the waves again and to take a gander at the lovely ladies at dairy queen...
For no-wind days, I now have SUP, and my goal is to catch one small wave. Yes, I will be bringing all my high-wind gear, can't wait to get out there again. If I must, I will try to bring along the Chilliwak-guy (KC7777) and maybe the toe-guy (mtm), but I am not responsible for their lack of water-activity (mtm in particular has been known to be distracted by tasty Oregon IPAs)! Lookin' forward to seeing those whom I met down there last year, you guys made the trip memorable. Counting down.
