I'm in if it's looking good. Probably will get there a bit earlier today.
Already much nicer and more sun in the Gorge than yesterday... hopefully same is true out west!

I am probably thinking around 2ish but could easily be persuaded to show earlier... around 1ish even... and if it's as nice as yesterday (or better!) I will probably be there all afternoon.
I've got some new toys to play with and would like to fly a couple of them.. meaning I'll probably have at least 2 pumped up and rigged on the beach, for both kiteboard and skim riding.
If anyone wants the quick lazy session, of show up, get dressed, walk down with your board and just ride, I am stoked to set it all up and have a demo kite ready to launch for you when you get to the beach. No wasting valueable daylight pumping and rigging!
I've got 9m,12m LF Assault2- Bow style and 8m LF Havoc SLE available.
If anyone interested in this no rig valet/demo service, reply and I will hump it all to the beach and have them rigged and ready ;->

I hope the wind holds...
I brought my gear with me so I can leave from work...just depends on when the boss lets us go. But, I think he has little league tonight, so I might be in luck. Hopefully get there around 3:30.....but if the wind dies...?
T- I woudl love to try those new LF's....I looked into the Havoc and the Assault 2's, so getting an on-water demo would be sweet!!
I will give an update if I can make it.
Hope the wind holds!

I'm heading from the Gorge in 15 min. Should be there just after 2.
Chanson- I will hump and pump the kites, so if you make it, you'll be good to go. That 12m assault2 was what I was on (230lbs!) with the skim yesterday until it was dead... so it will work pretty light. Definitely worth the try if you get out on time. Even 1/2 hour of riding in the sun can justify the drive this time of year!

man, I need a new day-job..
Don't think I'll make it out.... still at the office with no signs of taking my tie off early.
Sorry T-, but hopefully in the near future we could hook-up, if your LF's might still be for demo.
hope you guys got some goods.
