The wind was still good! I was on the 9 yarga. Gman was makin' the 5 work on his small board-- Kataku and Tucker were on 7 Rev's. (When we came in to rooster around 2:00 I landed someones "large" c-kite. It was a blue--I thought it was a 10 or 12m.)


Ya forgot to mention that Adam was only wearing board shorts and a rash guard - very impressive if he stayed out until 2 (or did he just forget his wettie?) it was bloody nippy in that wind

Henry, love the pics with the sun rising over the ridge. If there was a magazine article about dawn patrols (which there should be) they should use that first one.

Haha, prematurely asked for more of those sweet pics.

So what's the verdict? Looking like another repeat tomorrow??? Forecast is lighter, but will probably still be over 20mph if it blows at all. Looks like the weekend might work too. Saturday looks a bit funky, but Sunday might be good.

I'll wake up again at 6 tomorrow and check it out. Hope to see you guys out there if it's blowing from the East in the morning.

I dunno. I'm debating it. Doesn't look like pressure is dropping at RR yet and not looking too good right now. But Stevenson is dropping pressure and has turned East. It could just be ahead of RR in that department. Gonna check wind update in a few minutes and make the call. Airnet changes wind direction by 11am too, which is weird. Might still be ridable for a bit though...
