He was referring to the bars with hooks welded on to them that Windhorny (Yuri) put up at the Shack at Alameda so people can hang harness, wetsuits, helmets, bags, etc.

A little while ago, it seems someone broke off all the hooks, maybe vandalism, maybe someone thought they were dangerous? I guess Charlie collected some of the broken off ones...

So is everyone who kites at Alameda a welder, or what?

My first thought was it was the city, since they were all broken off, but i dont think the city would have left them on the ground. I will weld them back on before next season starts, but no point while there are more drug addicts there than kiters.

thanks for grabbing them though. I didnt actually think anyone would show up since it started to show offshore. I also realized that this is my busiest month of the year and if I got sick I would be up shit creek... by the way, where is shit creek? i wonder if they have good wind there.

Actually Shit Creek is on the map for real.
It is 15 mins before Waddell heading south.
Some people call it Gazos Creek but if you have been on one the days where the fish factory on the hill decided to scrub their tanks you would know...
It is still a killer spot though just don`t inhale!!!
