Saw your rig and busted trees figured you went Dorthy and Toto
Launch looked too.sketch for me - Mark of the Navi wanted to go but was having special dietary requirements
Upwindered from the marina past the hatch - wound 4.5m RPM - JUST RIDICULOUS
AT one point got gusted off my board and rode down the swell feet first on my ass, gave the kite a few pumps for good measure and surfed another 50yrds

I got munched by an overhead breaking wave yesterday just up from the ws bridge. Not your typical crumbling swell, but actually went through the wash. I haven't seen that before in my 15 years of gorge wind sports. It was an epic swell day.

Kiting onshore waves, no matter how big, is not victory at sea.
