Sure didn't pan out like that...bummer too. Geared up at the Ponds, E wind fell off. Hit Seaside a few hours later and a bit over anxious, pumped up, launched, and had to come to terms with the lack of wind. Saw one guy out on a big kite maybe a 14-16 barely getting by. Heartbreak...

Braved the cold this afternoon and rode a gusty but fun west wind on Long Beach. I was out there for an hour on my 9m. I earned my beer tonight...cheers
