Dude, if I were you I would head to the coast, but theirs a high likely hood that you will get skunked, but then again theres the drive.........hum, what to do???????
Bring your paddle board cus your gonna need it. Wish I could go, but I don't think it's going to blow three days in a row, but who knows???? Maybe it will?? Then again it is spring time in Oregon. It could be sick even if the forecast calls for calm conditions. Dude, if I were you I would head to the coast.....NO QUESTION ABOUT IT

North coasty wasn't disappointing yesterday from1-5:30 few head high peelers. First tack out we saw a whale we got about 100 feet from it but wanted to respects its space as well. Missed you G-man,saw your rig at shipwreck, your last lap looked pretty light hope you made it in fine.

So what your saying is that the northern strip had nice steady, lighter winds? Sunny and glassy faces. 16m C kite ish or 13 SLE was the call? OR 19m C kite ish?
Sounds like Manzo was the call on the North part of the coast. Newport had strong winds in the 20's, so that was the call for a day trip from p-town.
Glad someone got some.

Who was ripping it up today in manzo on the blue ss and directional? I got a few good shots from the road after packing up my land gear. Yay for 20x optical zoom. I had to cut the img size down to upload over this shoe string at the beach.
