Thanksgiving may be more than a month away for most of us, but fortunately Canadian Thanksgiving happened just yesterday! In celebrating with our kind neighbors to the north, we’d like to share some of our holiday revelries with all of you. We just couldn’t wait! Right now, our entire selection of 2007 windsurf boards, windsurf [...]
Midwest, East Coast, a vacation to Hawaii, or three months in Baja… no matter where you are or where you’re going, you need sails! And we’ve got good news because our entire stock of 2007 windsurfing sails are currently 20-30% off, which means you can save up to $200 per sail. That’s $200 you can [...]
Geez, is it August already? In two weeks it seems our season here in the Gorge will start wrapping up, but that’s just in time for those of you in the Midwest and on the East Coast to get your autumn blast! And hey, you might be planning a windsurfing trip this winter, or maybe [...]
We could go in all sorts of directions with this one, but we’ll try to keep it clean. Our latest shipment of stand up paddle boards arrived recently, and we’re all busy unpacking these glossy beauties. We now have no less than six different boards that will be happy to serve your every stand up [...]
Howdy, ya’ll! Just a brief note to let you know that all of our windsurfing boards from 2007 are currently on sale. That includes wave boards, freestyle boards, freeride boards… why, boards for just about all the riding styles and conditions that you could imagine! Most of our prices are too low to print, so [...]
Everyone here had a great time hanging out with Robby Naish last Sunday, chatting it up and getting the man’s distinct signature on everything from posters to hats, boards to sails. Visit our photo gallery at Flickr for more pictures of the event. We talked to Robby afterwards, and he was super stoked by how [...]
That’s right! Robby Naish, the legendary windsurfer and kiteboarder, is going to be at Big Winds this Sunday from 5-8 PM. This is your chance to get Robby’s autograph, shoot the breeze, and shake hands with quite possibly the most talented and iconic person involved in windsports. Posters will be available, and Robby will be [...]
We just added a new water helmet to our existing line-up, the sleek-looking Voz Evolution helmet. Voz Sports is dedicated to making the safest helmets possible, and is uniquely focused on watersports like wakeboarding and kayaking, or (our personal favorites) windsurfing and kiteboarding. The Voz Evolution is one of the lightest and most comfortable helmets [...]
It seems that windsurfers just can’t get enough of the French stylings of Okespor booties, which is why we’ve finally added them to our full bootie lineup on our company website. Some people love the easy entry and exit allowed by the zippered side on the Superokfun Boot, while other people prefer the strapless, minimalist [...]
Phew, we’ve been waiting for these guys for quite a long while, but they’re finally here! The Speedtech Skymate is a solid windmeter that seems to have been designed with windsurfers and kiteboarders in mind. In addition to measuring the current windspeed (in your choice of knots, mph, kph, feet/minute, meters/second and Beaufort) at your [...]
David has spent some more time on the Mistral Pacifico since his first review, and he has some more thoughts on this board. David has now had this board out in a wide range of conditions, both stand up surfing and windsurfing, and it sounds like he’s still a huge fan! His words follow: Since [...]
David is our in-house expert on stand up paddling, and the other day he took a ride on the Pacifico, Mistral’s crossover stand up paddleboard and windsurf board. Here are his thoughts on the board: Board Tested: 2007 Mistral Pacifico Date: May 7, 2007 Location: The Event Site – Hood River, Oregon Conditions: Light wind [...]

It’s strange to say, but we’ve got booty coming out of our ears over here at Big Winds… wetsuit booties, that is! We’ve got a bunch of different styles from previous years, in a wild amalgam of sizes, and we’d like to clear out the lot of them! If you’re interested in protecting your fine [...]
Alright, this is it. We’re five months into 2007 and it’s high-time we move our 2006 windsurf boards on out of here. They won’t last for very long at these prices, so if anything looks enticing we recommend that you call us now! In about two weeks, the little town of Hood River is going [...]
Everyone is abuzz about the new stand up paddleboard phenomenon, and we have a number of people here at Big Winds who are completely stoked on the sport. Here in Hood River, it’s a great way to get out on the water when the wind isn’t cooperating, and even in light wind these boards can [...]
