Just wondering if anyone is onsite today to give a report, because I figure today is going to be similar to tomorrow. I would like to head out there tomorrow! Shocked

was onsite yesterday and it was 12/14 meter wind for the 200 lb + boys. 3 others out on a 10/12 and they weighed a whoppin 165lbs.


right now 12-20 avg 16. about like yesterday- wind seems to be out of the north which changes it a little but still worth makind the drive. I like it when it is WNW and right now it is true NW.!!!

The evening session was great today. Got there at 6, was riding on 9m and twintip with no depower until the wind picked up a bit at 7:30. Rode until 8:15 when I lost my board Sad

Speaking of which... anyone heading to Jones tomorrow looking to sell a twin tip? Very Happy

What part of the river did you lose it? Oregon side of the river? Nuclear alley?

OR side in the swell area. Lost my prescription shades on the same impact so I couldn't see anything when I started body dragging.

I have nothing to sell, but I'd like to head up today. Gradients are at 0 right now, does anybody think it will blow later on?

The cloud cover over Kelso area has dissipated and its starting to heat up a little bit. I think it'll go similar to yesterday, maybe a bit lighter (10-12m kites).

I'll be out on Sun if the forecast holds if anyone wants to carpool from Beaverton.
