2009 Flatwater and Crossover Photoshoot

Photos by Anne Leete
Wednesday we did a photoshoot for the Flatwater and Crossover sails. Ray Mangan was shooting pics from the beach by Jeff's house at Camp One. My fiance Anne Leete came down and snapped a few pics with our camera too. The photos below are some of the images she captured.
The wind was a bit light and did not quite fill in as we had hoped. Ida was out on the 4.3 DD, but did not have quite enough wind.

Japanese wave monster Taka came down to join in the fun and tried out the Liquid, Speed Demon and GPS.

Jay Lee put the Crossfire 5.0 through it's paces showing us a wide range of freestyle moves. I think he started the challenge to see how close to the beach you can sail!
Ray shoots, Hessel on longboard with Ala, and Ida on The DD
The light winds at the start of the session were perfect for the 5.5 Liquid on the Longboard. Our engineer Hessel enjoyed taking Ala for a ride.

The group shot is always a challenge, but it helps to have good sailors that trust each other and know what they are doing. Columbian ripper Andreas Joined Taka and myself to make it happen. The sailing got very close and the gybing got very late. Apparently we started to scare the people on the beach!

Ray worked hard for a couple of hours until the sun got too far overhead. He took something like 370+ pics! Ala kindly brought food for lunch after the shoot which was greatly appreciated.
Thanks to all the sailors - Hessel, Taka, Ida, Andreas, Jay, Tom.
Thanks also to Ray and Anne for the photos and thanks to Ala and Sierra for the support.
That was a fun day at the office!

Those photos look great Anne. The sky is so blue; did you use a polarizing filter? Howz the leg coming? MB
Looks like another great way to use company funds besides drinking.
