April is windy in Texas. Corpus Christi or all the way South to SPI.

Add Texas to the list.  Galveston, South Padre, and Corpus Christi.  I haven't been but I have friends who go and it looks like the conditions can be great.  Not sure about consistency though.

Winged Quintana yesterday which is near Galveston. Water 61 air 62 and dropping. Head south

Is this a FLAT Edge, Flange?

I just bought these boxes encased in Divinycell and want to butt arrows up to the outside edge.  I just want to make sure a 1/4" Arrow shaft will sit flush against this rail.

Yes, they are flat.

Thanks for the reply. Well, I was thinking of back filling also like you're suggesting.
I did not know GG was that tuff with carbon tubes. I'll have to use it...thanks
The tubes have a 27mm internal diameter, exterior is 30mm with a wall thickness of 1.5mm. Instead of adding a center post I thought the truss would add more strength, but it does create a little more work.

The Shape Shack / Chinook 16" tracks

I purchased the Chinook 16" tracks and was tinkering around for a sound installation through to the deck. The tubes fit like a glove and have not been epoxied together yet. Should come out at 1.5 lbs. Thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks,
Gary

Keep it simple on the shape....love it! 8oz for the tracks? What tracks will you be using? 16"?

There is a group of wingers in that area. If you're on FB, search for Panama City Beach Kitesurfers.

Admin,
First, thanks for all that you do!

"Extra Long boxes are in and a layer of 4 oz to allow for heavy vac pressure on the carbon"

What vac pressure are they going to use?

Thanks

I've only seen one surf shop and it's pretty small with very little in stock in old town Mazatlan...that was a couple of years ago.
The two main breaks are cannons (left) and Playa Brujas (a right).

Sounds fun! Contact Jeff Howard at Fixmykite in Portland, Tx for local suggestions. Also, FB group, Corpus Christi Windsurfing. Wind should be good!
