At last! Really Fun, blustery and warm 9m kiting. A fantastic time, truly enjoyed myself out on the water for the first time in a long time. Kited almost all alone out there, before the 'after work crowd' showed up.

Lots of slogging but worth it to get on the water finally and had some powered runs. Wind very gusty and up and down. Had a great 1/2 hour at end powered to overpowered in 15-20 - it came up [b:4da52c8c4f]exactly [/b:4da52c8c4f]when Russian Dood left (sorry Andre, but it really did, just as your car pulled out!). Dropped just enough to not need to rerig or downhaul more, got by with tighter outhaul. Wind dropped really fast about 7:30, packed it in myself.
A couple of planing gybes, one overpowered v ... (more)

Putting in more time on the light wind board. I have been missing the wind lately so this was a great session. I was fully lit and the gusts helped me gain speed to plane right up to the beach.
I used the free shower at the beach, which made me feel like I was at a day spa with all the modern conviences (paved parking lot, shower) and the warmth of the sun (compared to a month ago). Oh, forgot to mention that I had two beautiful female gear sherpas carring my equipment to the beach and back.

crazy crazy wild wind, all over the place today - but overall a good day on the water as always. No casualties :D packed in the bay though - most kites i've seen in there, very sketchy, but good fun!
fingers crossed for some more, still blowing right now actually.... sadly i'm spent for the day.

2 runs of sinking to the waist and an upwind walk. The only good thing was landing my kite on the beach from the beach. Unfortunately/fortunately I didn't have the time to wait for the wind to come in later. Basically I was skunked!

first ever surfboard session (thanks Grant!), and [b:6f3cc6e8dd]more importantly[/b:6f3cc6e8dd], my first ever successful gybes on a directional board! Not very windy, but [b:6f3cc6e8dd]perfectly [/b:6f3cc6e8dd]smooth and steady wind, loads of fun learning the surf thing :D , and just a few of us out there. According to Dave, who (no surprise here) was out for hours, it was the best wind of the day).

:D :D :D That is why I've got big gear. It was slow to pick up...finally at 1pm (as Vic said) it past the 8kt threshold...I jumped on the Starbord Formula 156 and Neil Pryde RS3 11.0m and took off across this totally smooth lake....fella's on the beach were exclaiming 'DOOD, there's not enough wind!!) I beg to differ.....it was perfect Formula conditions..super smooth and steady wind....I shot up to the river mouth then down to the boat launch....YahooOOO!!!! Poor other souls sitting on the beach. I could ... (more)

Report said 14 knots and I only had an hour so I thought I would only bring the Go150 and the 7.5m sail. Pulled up and met Bean who let me know it had just cranked up to 20 plus. Ran home, got the small board and sail and went out. Beauty day in the sun. Got home and ended up sailing with the fam around Gabriola, this place doesn't get any better.

Nice day at the beach - except the bay was almost empty, litterally
- at first there was only enough water for two kites inside the boats, it was brutal, and even that was pushing it, but later it filled up to a more reasonable level. It kind of reminded me of kiting in a puddle!
Anyway, good day overall, nice weather, good to be on the water again.

I hadn't been to Columbia in a couple of years. Even took a wrong turn on the way there. I'll have to get there more often though. Sweet 4 hour session. Nice little shore break to play in and I didn't even have to look over my shoulder cause I was the only dude out there. Man that's a fun place.
