forecast is for 9' at 15 seconds and 20-25mph today. Anyone going to Shipwreck for a downwinder? I can be there noonish if the wind is up, which I think it will be. I have a suv with a parking pass and can transport three mermen

I'm heading out there today, was planning on hitting manzo where the wind is strongest. I'm game for a DW as well, I'll shoot you a text.

I will be at manzo about 1:30
Manzo is already windy and the waves are rolling in on the live cam. Looks like a super fun day
Awesome coast wind this weekend!! And sunny. I had 4 kiteboard lessons scheduled for this weekend and all 4 bailed. lame.... So if anyone needs or knows someone wanting a lesson have them call me. Wide open now. next weekend is booked up though.

That's the place to be, should be good once the fog lifts. Manzo is a good fallback if the winds are low.

I'm headed to Manzo or shipwreck. I make the call when I hit 101. Probably a dozen kiters at both today. Swell is forecast to drop to 4' at 15 seconds this afternoon, should be a lot easier getting outside than 10' on Friday.

STOP IT!
You guys are making me re-think my annual geographic location & work schedule. Spring and Fall don't look too bad out on the Oregon Coast. And, I NEED waves. I may have to get on some prescription meds to keep me sane until July. Just getting so bored 170 miles NE of the Geographic Center of the United States. Screwing up at work daydreaming about the mountains in the fall and the ocean in the Spring on a regular basis. Hmmmmm..... Maybe I can get fired and roll my house (van) out to the coast to contribute to your homeless problem.
