yesterday marks my first rufus trip for 2014.
when i arrived at 3:00, kiters were complaining too much wind for a 7m. I rig the 5m and check out the swell then I rigged a 6m for a boostacular session.
water is still cold, but might have to don a wetsuit next time if it's that sunny

Mmmmmm........tasty swell boosters Stringy! I solo'd the event site but should have driven east as I did not see that nukefest going down on the webcams. Toasty warm and hoping the days of the drysuit are numbered.

Nice score!!!

Cal, Tracy and I got out there Sunday for a nice session but we didn't have as nice of wind or water. I went out first on my 15 as my 12 wasn't cutting it. Shortly after the wind picked up and Cal and Tracy came out on 10s. I stayed on my 15 but probably could have made my 12 work.

The current was ripping so fast it was almost hard to get down wind. lol

Oh Viento was nuken Sunday where as the Event site was dead calm.

Cool shots Stringy! Can you tell me what go pro mount you use? I know you have shown it before but I searched and couldn't locate it. I just picked up a new go pro and want to get the right attachments.

Stringy, that last shot is a Tenacious D, Burrito supreme cream dream! That swell looks good, canyon walls are greening up, nice late winter Oregon day. Headache cold water I'm sure. Way to charge it!
