That trick isn't going to work much longer Wink

Some light winds at Sauvies sounds like a relaxing way to recover from the weekend. I will be out there after I put in my 8 hours for the man.

Looked good for a while. I was going to head out in the afternoon, but aborted after the 3pm reading came in and took the kid on a bike ride instead....
Anyone get some riding in from 12-2pm?

Dan, it was really up and down yesterday from around 4:30 to 7:00. People with glides and SB were out on 13-16m kites. Every 30 minutes or so we would get a nice pulse of air that lasted about 10 minutes so you could grab your twin tip and boost and slash and play around.

All in all, not to bad, but nothing to write home about that is for sure.

Kudos to all the people that helped jetisoned allot of the wood off of the beach. Always nice to make the place a little safer.

Sauvies was good on Monday.. 11m-13m, twin-tip-able... though I was on the skim.

Started out at a really onshore angle and kind of holey, but then straightened out and got solid by the end of the evening.

sounds like it may have been more fun there after 5 than at the sandbar.
