Jake Brody and I all started at Rush but it was hateful gusty from the NW. Packed it up and head to LB. We were (Jake stay home and tend his kids) rewarded with a great PM session on the 11's-12's. Launch is a bit rocky but kiting was Surperb. Kites and wet suit are clean again. Nice to rig and derig on Grass. Swell and flat water it's a great place to bad it doesn't get a South. lots of kites in the sky

Nice after work ride. I rode for about 2 hours. Left around 7:30 while others still on the water. Pulled the depower strap a bit and all was great on th 13m instinct! To bad this hit suddenly mid week, would have been great day for the downwinder. Best wind in a long time! Good friends good wind and Fun!

It was so good I can't even sleep! Rode 11m and 131 board, I spent the whole time trying to be like Len10 ( just trying), Chris threw some airs over the road! some how Jason Morton held down a 15? it was just sick! Sure missed Jake out there after our morning trek to rush, but made sure his board didn't miss the session :twisted: !!!!

YEAH... Wednesday wind took us completely off guard on the North... It would have been good...

What I'm realizing is... This downwinder is going to have to be even a MORE SPUR OF THE MOMENT thing than I'd like... Especially when our window of opportunity is wearing thin... I don't want it to go into June if we can help it... I agree... I was working all day, ALL DAY, isn't that something, ;) and I didn't even get a chance to look at the wind yesterday till evening! Oh well... So, if we get a similar day it's on guys.

Wind blowing while we are working. This why we need a stock ticker for wind. So at the bottom of your computer screen you get a running bb of the current wind (ofcouse in red, green font colors.)

So when your coworkers hear you scream "by by by, sail, sail, sail!" Followed by a dash out of the office, they will think you are working on your retirement portfolio.

They would say to each other, "man everytime the market goes nuts he takes off."
