It was the Bee's Knee's 
Steady 7m wind sunny and warm.
There was a great crew out there killing it all day. I would guess 15-20 kites total. Stoke all the way around for sure.
Oh yeah did I mention its the middle of January

That was the most fun I've had in a while  . I'm sore and my eyes are on fire this morning, but I'm still glowing from a sick session. Here are a few shots of Forrest overpowered on an 8M.

...if anyone cares the surf was INNNNNSANE today.
Overhead barrels, 10 ft swell, offshore wind, sunny------so stoked!
Not worth missing---- to kite in flat water.
But it looked fun out there glad you scored.

The ponds sucked! Way too cold, too windy, tides never cooperate, etc...
Everyone should just surf instead.
Those waves made me wish I surfed!
This is just off the jetty, not even a real break.
And you may want to stay out of the channel...

that was an awesome weekend.
pretty much got blown off the water this AM
could just barely hold down the 7m;
it tooks 3 launch attempts just to get in the water
survival kiting at it's finest.
should have had the 5m.

Saturday at the ponds was so fun.
Surfing on Sunday was intense. I'm a total beginner but I tried. We waited to long and got shitty mushy confused waves at Pacific City but I caught a few. It was fun to try SUPing in all that mess though, in the end I ditched the paddle and just rode the SUP like a longboard. I'm definitely ready to move down to the a funboard.
I don't have the surfing itch yet, so give me flat water and smooth wind over that.
