1999 Great Canadian Fly-In
Thanks to all of the foilers who participated in & organized the first annual Great Canadian Fly-In hosted by the Crane Lake Hydroholics. The event was held near Edmonton, Alberta on July 24 & 25, 1999 & was attended by over 35 riders from all over North America.


Norbert's new Malibu Sunsetter was broken in the best way we knew how!

 Exactly who's signature is the flip in the sunset?
Kevin's or Ian's? 


Either Jake has a hell of a recipe for disaster or a gainer thrown into a Round the Boat.

One of the highlights of the Fly-In was breaking the world record for the most riders behind one boat. 12 foil riders got up behind Norbert's '99 Malibu Sunsetter! Check out the elaborate rig that was engineered to handle all those ropes!
