Dear Longboard enthuiasts...
As many of you may already know..The Big Cheese from Rio d'Pistola has been
threatening to reconstruct the scene of the crime of the original " Suisun
Slough Slalom" A two hour downwinder from the mouth of Suisun Slough to
Suisun City...
The said publisher is ponying up for the Helicopter ride to get my big white
butt in position to burn some film which he threatens to use a a full on
feature and cover for an upcoming issue of "Windtracks". There has been no
promises of Beer and Pizza awaiting the crew at take-out in Suisun City
though...Perhaps we need a union boss to negotiate...

For those even mildly ammused by the prospect, I have taken the time to
formulate possible weekends that wil work with hightides that are necessary
to pull off this epic event...Please note this is not my Idea. I am just the
poor slob who's will is too weak to resist the chance for a free Helicopter
ride and hopefully a cold brewski...Any questions regarding this should be
addresses to the "Man" at Wtrackshq@aol.com....-DeleteThis

Confirmation of interest should be address to myself or Anne Hammerslag, her
address is AnneUSA34@aol.com...If-DeleteThis you have a Longboard. or can borrow one or
know somebody who might be interested, please pass the word, and reply
asap...The season for the delta is upon us...Also please download or print
these dates for your reference....Let us know which weekend(s) work bets for
you, we'll go from there and pick the ones that are most poular and the wind
cooperates with...
This will be a "standby" operation, we'll need telephone numbers...
Anybody ther able to get hold of Jim Johnstone or John Callahan?

Please Note: We would meet at the starting point, Pierce Landing Road just
across the Benicia Bridge at around 2:00 pm the day of the event. Gear would
be unloaded and an automobile shuttle to the ending point at Suisun City
would then proceed....Leaving cars there...Then loadem up and back to "Put
In" for launch around 3:00 Pm....Then off you go for a ten mile down wind
ride through "Gods Slalom" At the "Take Out" Clay will be waiting with Ice
Cold beer,and piping hot pizza for all! (right Clay?)

If youre interested, or know somebody(ies) else please advise... Longboards
with centerboards and Big Sails are needed...Maybe we can drum up a
manufacturer/shop sponser?
