Probably coast or Jones, although SI will probably get the regular PM push.

Coast looks good, but I'm stuck in town today as well...

Looks like it could go at SI... I'll make a break for it if it does.

Sauvie gave out handjobs to those with big kites and skim boards. The rest of the gang, well, the got to drink beer with Sauvie's ugly friend on the beach.

Like Moto said... it picked up at 6:30! The wind also shifted a little (more side shore than when I first arrive, which was onshore)
Glad I showed up late and stuck around... I was on my 13m with my twintip and had no problem staying upwind at all!
I love how people always leave... then it picks up! Sauvies loves to blow late Wink

Coast was the only way to go. I had never been to sunset beach and it was nuts. Really hardcore current pulling to the south. There were a number of folks out there and everyong was doing down winders there. I think that must be the way to go... Anyhow had some trouble staying up wind and ended up just going with the rest of the folks. Great 12m fun waves and the water wasn't bad at all.
