That's one hell of a tan! Who's this guy?

A windsurfing god! Wish l could bottom turn like him.

Da Action man. From Barbados, did it al!!

I'll have what he's having!

1992

When on vacation, holiday whatever you-all call it, in Saint Lucia, Eastern Caribbean Island, I saw a photo shoot for F2 sails, Brian was the photo subject. Me with my pasty white skin and Yank accent, stood out. I was sailing , a real active term compared to him, down wind of his photo antics.
Being the worldly gent, I recognized himself straight off, sun bleached blond hair, kinda easy.
I watched until he came ashore , finally, and spoke to him, easily approachable , friendly as all get out, he was a little surprised I had a F2 sail, which were never sold in the US . He hooked me up with a tee shirt and stickers.
Great guy. Brilliant sailer, freestyle supreme.

That's a really old vid, probably shot before internet and sunscreen was invented.
I found a recent photo of him taken last week.

You used to be funny

Brian sailed LT at the Engandin Wind Marathon
He's mentioned at 3:18:00 and shown at 3:19:54

Brian is Carribean, meaning half black.
Didn't he run his own windsurf resort at the Gorge?

The weight of all that wisdom weighs heavily!!
