Going to hit the airport around 7 or so. Should be pretty damn fun cause it's windy as hell. Windy and dry in October... Come get some because sk8 kiting alone kind of sucks pdxmonkeyboy Since 16 May 2006 6081 Posts forever labled as the retired kiter & motorhead Unicorn Master Wed Oct 14, 09 12:56 pm     Stiff south wind which makes for awesome long tacks. If It stays clear I'm shooting for 4-5 tonight pkh Since 27 Feb 2005 6549 Posts Couve / Hood Honored Founder Wed Oct 14, 09 3:32 pm     Lookin pretty good right now, even warming up to a balmy 65!

Setting sun, clear skis, consistant wind and ben Harper on the headphones. Great way to finish a weekend that started with me shooting a finish nail through my finger..like through the pad and out the nail mschulz Since 29 May 2007 530 Posts Reno, NV Addicted Sun Feb 21, 10 7:05 pm     Monkey - You missed a sweet Rooster afternoon. _________________ MS Nak Since 19 May 2005 4305 Posts Camas Site Lackey CGKA Member Sun Feb 21, 10 7:21 pm     Yes he did. That was about the steadiest wind I've ever ridden. Plus hundreds of sturgeon in the shallows about 3/4 of the way upwind on the island. That was so cool to see. I had to be careful not to hit any there were so many. Some of them were DAMN big too! genek Since 21 Jul 2006 2165 Posts East Po KGB Sun Feb 21, 10 9:02 pm     Nak wrote: Yes he did.

It's probably good Monkeyboy missed the sturgeon party or he woulda jumped right in. _________________ The Slider Project, LLC Support the cause! http://www.sliderproject.com/ Brad Since 11 Aug 2009 12 Posts   Sun Feb 21, 10 11:17 pm     I was at PDX for an afternoon sk8kYt sesh.

Thought hard about heading up there today with the boat & wading over to the pods... It'd be hard NOT to catch a sturgeon. Unfortunately I have annual recurrent training tomorrow & I have a shitload of preparation to do today. 'course it'd be an interesting experience to hook an over-sized sturgeon while wading! Kraemer Since 24 Apr 2006 1736 Posts Sky Pilot Unicorn Captain Mon Feb 22, 10 12:09 pm     Oversized is not ideal for eating-- you want a 3-4 footer at most. One that you could easily knock-out landing upon. PS. nice raspberry shiner! pdxmonkeyboy Since 16 May 2006 6081 Posts forever labled as the retired kiter & motorhead Unicorn Master Mon Feb 22, 10 12:27 pm     I love me some of dem der sturgeon.
