Yo homsieses,
SI turned epic at 6:30ish and stayed full all the way across, for over two hours!
Must have been blowing at least 20, straight up river!
Folks that left earlier REALLY missed out.
I saw a dude taking pictures, anyone know who? It'd be great to see some posted.
Did my first deadman (old school)!
Good times, good peoples!

Ummm, I just got off the phone with someone that was there at that time and they said it sucked ass all night. 16m and skims is NOT epic. 
tomorrow does look promising though.

It was funky up & down all day at least until Kelt and I left about 7pm. If I had to describe it, I would say it was a lot like Monkeyboy's new icon....
It was mostly 13M when it was working.
IDK what happened after 7pm but it did look like it was picking up when we left (like usual).

Brian's right, but it was semi-epic? Definitely not 16m skimmy wind, though.
It was after almost everyone left (no witnesses  ).
Capping all the way across, and me, 210 lbs, over powered on my 15m fs.
Chop-hops yielded major air with speedy re-entry.
Monday early was huge in comparison. I've never seen it as big there.
I was waiting for the wind to calm a bit (smallest is 14M), when Tucker arrived. The man is insane. HUGE unhooked insanity (landing everything I saw).
It was 25, gusting to 30 when I checked my wind tube.
Brian, sorry about the Ambers, I was bored, what can I say? Tastey!

I got there at 2pm today (Monday) and it was great on the 11m for about 1.5 hours, then fizzled out like a busted bladder. I left at 4, did it ever pick up again?
