I found someone on Craigslsit advertising a Windsurfer. The ad says Wind Wing. Her name is Jana and first I emailed her and asked her if she would sell just the wetsuit. She described it perfectly.
I was rushing out the door and remembered that I was responding to a Windsurfing ad so I quite foolishly tipped my hand and told her my plight (all my kite gear stolen, could she lower the price on the wetsuit?). She didn't email back.
BUT, her post lists her phone number so I called and left a message under the name of Mary. She called me back and described my kite as a kite, not a windsurfer.
But I think she knows it's me b/c my number is a Berkeley number and I said I lived in Oakland.
SO, anyone wanna help? Clearly I'm too stupid to do this myself.
Search Craigslist Sporting goods for "Wind" and it pops right up. Please ask her if there's any more gear and see if she'll be home tonight.
BIG BIG THANKS
Alison

Here's the deal
Many Many Big Thanks to Yuri from the very bottom of my little kiteboarding soul. The sellers described it perfectly to him. It's definiteley my stuff.
I'm going to let the undercover detectives take it from here. The cops will pose as buyers and if they get my wetsuit they can get a search warrant in a couple of hours and search everything.
Civilians can't go along for the fun of nailing these *&#^%@% guys but hopefully, if all the detectives aren't busy with more important cases (how anything could be more important than my gear I don't know) and the cop doesn't blow it, and all the judges aren't stuck in court all day, I'll get my gear back.
Thank you so much Yuri.
Tune in for more adverntures
