Jim Drake: the co-inventor of the Windsurfer and father of modern windsurfing
Jim Drake, the co-inventor of the "Windsurfer" and father of modern windsurfing, has passed away at the age of 83. The North American aeronautics engineer improved the early design by Peter Chilvers and Newman Darby.
In the 1970s, Jim Drake and his partner Hoyle Schweitzer submitted the patent for their "Windsurfer" design, based on the Newman Darby's techniques. They credited him for their version of the sailboard.
Jim Drake learned from Darby's developments and upgraded the board and rig layout, as well as the universal joint which stands modern and used all over the world.
Drake was born in California in 1929. Thirty five years later, he was trying to develop a kite powered surfboard that would allow him to sail down the Potomac River.
Later, he meets Hoyle Schweitzer - a keen surfer - and they decide to build and test their first models in Marina del Rey. After falling several times, he knew he had to introduce the uphaul. Watch an historical video documenting these water tests.

Desde Tenerife con amor (à barragem)
Tras un invierno en el que práticamente no he tocado tablas ni velas, la vuelta a nuestra casa en Tenerife me ha traido grandes recuerdos del año pasado. Las despedidas son malas, y mas tras los buenos momentos que había pasado en el islote durante varios años.
Sin embargo, dentro de ese mal trago, con la visita de mi hermano y algunos Barragemnistas natos (Jose y Felipe....nos faltó Juanon), pues como que se llevó mejor. Fueron unas buenas vacaciones definitivamente.
El caso es que todo ese mal rollo que me ha dejado este invierno de crisis se me está pasando, y una vez que he desempolvado el material, navegado, surfeado....e instalado en casa, estoy retomando algunas imagenes windsurfisticas "pure barragem style on the waves" de ese buen verano de 2011.
(Fotones: grande Felipe)
Pedro (botttom):
Felipe (atravesando el maretón de El Cabezo con 4,7 full power):

Un saludo.
P.D.: se abre la veda para nuevas incursiones a Tenerife. Aqui estareis como en casa.
