Any insight on wind today ? Forecasts seem pretty wishy-washy but most Astoria cams look partly sunny already....

I launched a few ppl this afternoon before i headed back the house for lunch. There were about 8 ppl out and a few setting up. Was out on the buggy in the morning, wind picked up to 16/21/24. Good 9m day! Wind is NNW and I was having a hard time staying getting up the beach... fun anyway, was trying a PL 5.8 twister! Today would be a good downwinder day; tide is also coming in fast from 0 to 7.

Need a bigger lens - all the goods where on the far far

some shots from sat soul sess with the Slither

had my biggest wipeout of the year - saw nice one the way way outside, carved a top turn, sick bottom turn, nearly got back to the lip and got obliterated (after a couple of tumbles and a 30 second hold down was pretty amazed the kite was just resting nicely on the surface

Fun Weekend
