Saturday built all day I went from a 13 to an 11 to the 9 then at 5pm it just died-dead. Overall it was a pretty epic Saturday. I got out there this morning and tried to make the best of what was gusty 6-10 mtr conditions. The waves were big and close, lots of doubles. Drank a lot of salt water. Gave up at 3pm.

nice Exclamation i think i was still beat from Saturday. Has anyone ever rode the wide part of Neahalem river between the jetty and Manzo it looks like a lot of flat water with a possible launch at the NW boat launch...edit... never mind if i would have thought about it the ponds would have been good.

Saturday was epic, steady/solid wind all afternoon, everyone was having FUN !

Sunday was WINDY and BIG, but the wind sucked, holey, gusty, onshore/sideshore, too much work after such a great day before. Many tried, but most gave up, guessing they went north for better conditions.

Who ever was flying the blue/black slingshot is a monster. I think they flew for two days straight without a break! I got a few pictures from the bluff also, but they're pretty blurry.
