DW numbers growing.

[DavidJohn]

Down-winder's numbers are growing down under.. 

Today we had about 20 in our group.. and for some of them it was their first time.

 Here's how it went.

 With as much fun as DW'ing is, I can understand!
Looks like you're on one of the new Glides, did you finally break down and get one?

DJ, I'm sure your videos are great advertising to bring downwinding to the masses. Good job. Around here, I'm lucky to find one other person to the car shuttle with. I think it'll grow here as well, we're just earlier in the adoption curve.

Thanks.. and No.. I still have my old  14' Glide.. This run was on my 12'6" x 30" Glide just for a change.

The flater rocker of the 12'6" caught me out a few times but there were the odd missed runners that I could chase down and get back on with that little bit of extra speed.

Wow, I didn't want that one to end.  I think you've nailed it on the camera height.  Completely mesmerizing!

I'm sure it will happen there also.. You just need to get the ball rolling.

Meanwhile.. We're going to need bigger trailers..m

Thanks.. I've got some new ideas to help make it a little more stable.. It's a bit of a hassle to paddle with on board but it does give a pretty good angle/ view.

That looked great...looks like you have a good way to grow it with the trailer. That has to make a huge difference for convenience.
