You realize, of course, that saying its almost winter in August is like saying its almost summer in February.

Not too nutty - I did too! Summer is ski gear buying season.

Was great being on an island in Maine last week with heavy socks, Under Armour pants, and a hoodie on...86 and soupy in RI today.

That's as nutty as buying water skis in January.

Would they have mogul or tree skiing there?

That's phenomenal. Can't imagine how hard it must be to stand up, and then not drown after the swell passes.

I wonder where the technology will go with ski/surfing. It looks damn fun, but I'm having a tough time envisioning how the equipment can improve to the point where you can participate without a tow in vehicle.

Now, Kite skiing on water seems to have a bit more potential.
