OE?
Also a pretty good day for the 4 poleboarders (John Dubock, Jerry Giles, Sarah Ranes, and me) at DCIB.

Perfect for DC 13m wind. Great afternoon in the nice fall weather. Beers afterward at the OE (Other End) bar in Heber.

I arrived late and joined the kiters at DCBB and OE.

Yesterday was sweet! Started out on the raceboard and went right upwind to the island and cruised around with the windsurfers. Passed some old geezer on a starboard? It was pretty windy. Came back down to BB and started doing super downwind reaches to Charleston along the shoreline then raging back upwind on one tack. That was super fun. Wanted to get my twin-tip to do some jumps but it was in the truck, so I decided to just ride the race board. Jake showed up and rode in shorts? Let him ride the raceboard since I already had 2.5 hrs on the water. Wish I would have stuck around for the apres kite!!

Yea, I was wearing shortie. The air was warm. I figure I could handle the cold water for an hour. The water gave me intense chill at first until I finally warm up. Rode the Balance 137 and 12m NXG perfectly power. Jason let me ride his raceboard. The board rock. Insane fast upwind and the best light wind board on the market. I finally got a UPS tracking number today which I have my raceboard at my house next week. I will be ready to chase Jason around. Thanks for letting me ride your board. It cool to see the crowd at the lake. I notice a lot of the new kiter have progress a lot this year. Hopefully we have a few more weeks of kiteboarding before it gets too cold.
