I'm leaving from beaverton around 4:00 - anyone need a ride? I don't want to be drinking by myself when Sauvie decides she's just messing with us and not going to put out.

Yeah I gave the "you need speed, not big kites for good jumps" approach a try. It worked pretty well, but it's really hard to hold an edge at that speed in all that chop.
Also got a bit more unhooked practice in, likely to the amusement of the beach crowd.

Looks like a nice day out there. Thanks for the pics!

You know, people rag on Sauvies, but I've always had fun there. Great place for a beer if the wind is down...

Great place to bring your pitbull and pregnant girlfriend too! I'm playin' though, we;ve had some great parties out there in college.
