Last night, I surfed after work from 5 to 7:30 at mouth of our Lachine canal where it merges with St Lawrence River. It creates actually a big lake at that place. It located just in 15 min drive from my home in Montreal.
First time in my life I did it in darkness, only in the shimmering light of the full moon, stars and beacons… Very romantic! It was +28 degrees, so I spent the first hour without diving (body) suit. I had not to risk and not fall in the water. Then I pulled it on, and …unburdened my heart. smile.gif

There is beautiful place for this activity in North Carolina: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/sto.../TPStory/Travel

Looking for companions to go there!

Как нужен ветер парусам!
Как нужен ветер!
Нас этот штиль сведет с ума,
Под килем сонная вода,
И шторм сейчас я с радостью бы встретил.

В застывшем небе облака,
Устало выпучив бока,
Грустят о ветре.
Ведь их дорога в никуда,
Без ветра будет нелегка-
Им нужен ветер.

Как нужен ветер парусам…
Как нужен ветер.
Пусть лучше бесится вода,
И лучше в клочья паруса,
Чем эта душная жара
В палящем свете.

По горизонту шарит взгляд
Вперед, на запад и назад
Глаза слезятся и болят
Ну где ж ты, ветер?

Нам нужен ветер позарез,
Чтоб ожил снова свод небес,
Чтоб наш корабль вновь воскрес-
Нам нужен ветер!

Как нужен ветер парусам…
Как нужен ветер.
Пусть лучше бесится вода,
И лучше в клочья паруса,
Чем эта страшная жара,
В безмолвном свете.

would recommend "Windsurfing 101" and "Turn for the better"
http://windsurfing-direct.ca/CA/en-us/dept_135.html]http://windsurfing-direct.ca/CA/en-us/dept_135.html

"Windsurfing 101" - for absolute beginners
"Turn.." - for people who already can sail a little.
