    :D Got there at 3:30 and rigged my 4.0 right away. I was mega powered up for a couple of hours and there were some nice smooth rollers to ride at times. Not a great day for jumps tho, because of swell direction. Then switched to 4.7 and fish for the last hour. Hurry back Dave and Chris - we'll try to save some for you. :lol:

    What a day! I started early at about 11:15 on the 12m.

    Hung on until it was getting to be too much to handle.

    Bonnie & Johnny and Steve & Debbie were on 10m and 12m.

    Jim joined us for a 12m session and then 9m.

    Steve enjoyed a short session on the 10m but it soon became too much.

    It really came up around 2:30/3:00 and the girls went out on 6m!

    The windsurfers looked like they were having a great session as well.

    lucky number 13... :( things were fine until I put the new kite in the water. tried every relauch trick under the sun to no avail. spent 30 minutes on the beach resetting the lines. Then went out and did it again! At least the second time no one else could relaunch either. caught out by 10 minutes of bad wind. Still, Thomas managed to keep it aloft through the whole deal. So not really sure what happened. Sunny and warm at least....

    Finally got to test drive the JP 251, but when I came in after an hour or so to change fins it dropped, so upsized the board and got another hour or so, nicely powered. 4.7 all the way through.

    Nice session, four days in a row. Thats more like the Gordo's we know.

    Went up to Muir creek but there wasn't quite as much south in the wind as the last 2 days so a bit light and "flukey" there.

    Steve and Debbie from Salem OR/LaVentana enjoyed the session on 12m and 10 ORs. Jim joined us on his 12m as well.

    Once again, sun,wind and reasonably warm temps!

    Fun to get out again after another long hiatus. Hoked up with the Law for some Dunkin Slashin. Third Dunkin dude; Turtle also showed up. Fun 4.7 with Jose and the gang. Bit gusty, but nice and warm and just really good to miss the Stanley Cup final for a good session. Caught the most important (last 15 min.) on NW 980 on the drive home. Who really cares about hockey anyway. I'd rather be throwing hate than sitting in front of that little hate box feeling numb. Hopefully this is the official start to ... (more)

    There was a new mod for the GK bar, I got it and put it on.

    Now I'm not sure if it was the mod, or if I rigged wrong.

    But as soon as I self launched, the kite wasn't responding to steering input. It went out over the water, so I thought well thats where I want it anyway. About 50 feet out and down comes the kite.

    The rest of the session was trying to figure out what was wrong.

    The kite didn't want to relaunch properly, and when it did it acted real wierd.(I know it wasn't an invert)

    For a second I th ... (more)

    What a great stoke - nice to see so many smiling faces and stoked riders. Once again, given the conditions, it was great to be on the ONE kite. It's not really that it makes it that much easier to kite (which it does), rather, it is the satisfaction while walking down to the beach and setting up that you KNOW you have the right size! :D

    a few surges of high adrenaline wind, and a few pockets of lift from time to time made this a fun session. still learning the new kite.

    :D Another fun but mellow day at Gordo's with the usual group minus a few. I expected a bigger turnout after all the non-sailing we've had. Looks like maybe the season is going to get in gear now. 8)
