				| Let's hear it.  Who's scored the mega-sessions this year? I'm up-to 71, but don't consider it any incredible sessioning feat.
 I wanna hear from the commited kite junkies.
 
 How many?
 Most memorable mishap?
 Best Dangler siting?
 
 Did anyone else see a kiteboarding feature this weekend on NWNews Channel which featured vintage footage of Cory Roeseler with a rigid spar kite, extremely narrow board, holding a super long bar which was at least four feet long?  It was very interesting.  I'd forgotten what the equipment looked-like about ten years ago.

				| How could it be undisupted... there are so many spots that you'd never know who got out the most. I didn't keep count this year, but I think I might next year. It was 3 days a week early season, 5-6 days a week last few months, now shifting back to 3 or so. 
 I'd put my bid in for most miles driven. Is there an award for that?

				| 2005 has been a special year.  Drawing on all my Slither powers to combat the dark forces that continually try to stand between me and the wind, I clearly secured the undisputed title. 
 Some of the highlights:
 
 Aggro fisherman and their vein-popping aneurisms
 Sasquatch getting a jet ski ride with the nude guy to look for his board
 Formation of the Dangler Alliance
 Close up whale encounters
 Nectar landboard sessions
 15+ mile downwinders
 Somehow avoiding any speeding tickets (knock on wood)
 Summerhouse sessioning in the River Troll-atorium
 Quitting my corporate devil job
 Hellfish tacos and other new product spectacles
 The Max Bo segment of "Awake"

 OK, so his suit was on while you had your arms around his waist on the Jet Ski...  What about on the beach when you had to approach him?
   
 Have a nice coastal session!  It looks to be epic

				| Slither I like your highlights... I think I will compile my own, but not until at least November as we still got plenty of riding left to do! 
 Though nude encounters are probably less likely as we get further into winter.
