yesterday we welcomed a rare day of high pressure which results in a stronger northerly push down the puget sound into seattle.
this means we'll have a great day of wind, but it comes with the cold northerly that barely got over 40 degrees. also its a day of no rain! we usually only get the southerlies with plenty of precip.
golden gardens is known mainly as the get together beach in seattle, as well as home to sailboats and yachts.
just about everytime we kite here, there are sailing races. last summer the corinthian yacht club invited the kiteboard course racers to compete with the sailboats. that was fun. anyhow I'm rambling now.

here are some images from yesterday's kiteboarding on puget sound.

Great day for sure. May have been warmless but it was worth it. haha

Had a chance to test out a 2011 Cab switchblade for the first time.

Here's some Hero on a stick action from the same day.
