I went out skating on Saturday in the delta. RUSSIAN said he wasn't using his dry suit any more so I decited to give it a try. The water was 52 degrees but it didn't seem that cold. However my toes got really numb and I lost the ability to control ollies and carves after a hour of riding, so i had to go in lol.

The water is so dirty where i wakeskate. But i dont care. I'll risk getting sick just to get my fix.

My friend just bought the Canon digital rebel XT (8 megapixel), and also a really nice telephoto lense. Check out some of the shots:

here's a link to the first pic in 8 megapixel format: http://chriscut.com/photos/Delta-March-26-2005/IMG_1655_001.jpg

nope

If you look closer in the pic you can see that I bailed. My feet were too close together. I hope to be able to learn it this season though.

thanks for the complements.

RUSSIAN: Yeah, I heard it warms up once in spring, then when the snow run off starts it drops down again. I dont know about you but I cant wait until it starts getting dark at 9pm again. Going out on the boat after work is a blast.
