I was at me secret spot and had my highest boost EVER!

It felt, and looked like I boosted 40', then just about heated up my drysuit when right before I apexed, went up another 10'!

But it looked like Sauive was epic. Anyone make it out there today (Sunday 6/17)?

I can't believe it went off and no one was there to take advantage of it!

BUMMER. Count me among the bummed.

I had fun at my spot, but it noway compares to a good SI day, fo sho!

At times I had a directly on shore flow that kind of made me nervous on my shore jibes, especially after my big 40-50' foot extravatanza!!!

I actually showed up late saturday afternoon and it turned on around 6:00 pm. I rode until 8:15 and could have stayed on the water until dark. I was the only guy out. Big change from a couple of years ago.

I went back saturday afternoon and was out until 3:30, then had to take off for family stuff. Wind was really north/northeast which ment riding up and down parallel to the beach. Not that good. As I was leaving a couple people showed up.

Sorry, I was out paragliding all weekend. Amazing flying conditions at the coast!

It looks like maybe wed and thurs nites will go off this week. I'll be checking the forecasts and actuals tomorrow, and if it's going off I'll head out around 4pm.
