U-Haul was the bomb. Cost about the same as a small car.
Bet the flats will be packed with them next year

Damn, I can't wait!!!! Two more cable park days, and then I'm there!
Cable has been epic though... Starting to get switch tricks to the outside of the cable. So much better than popping to the inside. It's been 90 degrees and the water temp is probably 75.
On a side note, HDPE sucks as a slider surface when it's hot. All their features are HDPE and if you didn't spray them with water on your last lap they'll be really sticky. For the FunBox we're going to use the next step up, UHMW PE, which has a way lower friction rating, way bigger operating temperature range, and does way better in the UV rays from the Sun.

The south winds have kicked in and the forcast is for a week of good southerlies.
We caught a 12 mile downwinder (Jetty to roads end) yesterday in the waves on 8m kite. The waves were small but it looks like they're getting bigger for today. Sunsets have been picture perfect every night on the flats.
Crew that just left, it was awesome to have you here and your BBQ grill and cooler have been put in the storage locker.
Forrest and the crew that's coming. PM us when you get here as we have extra surfboards if you want to ride some waves.
