Wind gods have been kind, providing 7m/11m conditions the last 2 days. Smathers beach is a great spot to ride w/ a nice 'Honey Hole' for transitions and trix. Overall the beaches here are not as nice as Maui / main land FLA or Hatteras. But - There are great places to eat, music to hear, and plenty of other things to do tho. And, there are wild chickens all over the place. Thought you guys might like to see what this beach in Key West looks like, so here ar a few pics. - C

Yeah, I don't think so either. I must have accidently sacrificed something . 2 days on the 7m (one could have been v. overpowered 11m)- Had to tie down the tent so it wouldn't blow away

| I still think riding squalls with driving rain in 45 degrees is more fun.
