    Wind came up at 2:30, after some nice sunbathing. Sweating it was so hot, absolutely fantastic weather - 25 in Port Alberni! (got skunked on Friday though). On the water with Grant, Kendra and 13 other kiters, once again the smoothest wind imaginable. San had to stay home.

    Epic day at the SS :lol: . Glass on the inside sand flats, swell on the outside, play in the mini surf between the two, you choose. Doesn't get any better than today! Tried aerial transitions for the first time.

    Yesterday was on the 17m trying a new pulley bar - works great. Love riding in the fixed loop its so relaxing on the arms.

    Spent most of my time in the inside as I was powered up on the 5.8, and I am still learning. Was coming in as the wind dropped to 18kn and met Menno who was going out so I rigged the 6.3 and went out again. Menno sailed right over top of a whale that surfaced in front of him. He didn't hit it but it was close. Crazy. Sunny and warm and its almost October, nice.

    Wind came up at 2:00, slowly up to about 18 at it's peak, 16 for most of the sunny day. Cold at night before, but made up for it in the daytime. 5 degrees above seasonal norms (or more). San did a crazy spin and hurt her ribs, but had a blast before that.

    After spending 9 hours(!) at Camp Rotting-Bear, got to kite from about 3 until 5:30. Perfectly smooth wind, and had a great time on the water with Gerry et al. Fun times for all, and the best wind of the year for sure.

    Wind finally came up about 2/2:30. Super smooth and steady. Sailed 7.5 and Adagio way upwind, almost to island. Nice looong reaches between the bays above the river. Almost 50 kmph on downwinder back. Changed to Seatrend with big slalom fin, got an hour before it lightened up, back to Adagio to close out the season at Nitinat. Lots of friends to sail with. Made about 80%+ jibes. COuldn't get the Seatrend above 40 kmph - needed more wind. 70 km on odometer. Had many close encounters with salmon, a ... (more)

    12m and 135x40 board, 170 lbs.

    Nicely dialled in with the 12 for about an hour then it died off a bit at 2:00. Very comfortable session. Inside is glassy for sweeping buttery turns. SE is a bit up and down but solid feeling wind.

    Could've muscled the 17 but why bother. :)

    How to tell the season in ending? Everyone's out! 10 kiters at one point (more on the beach). Damn windy, powerful gusts, felt like an October front. Pulled a mostly-accidental kiteloop after my hand got ripped off the bar mid-jump. Adrenaline inducing, but painful! San was way overpowered on the 12m. Wind 6/10, fun 7/10. Adam was ripping!

    Sailworks Retro 7.5
    Powered to overpowered on 7.5 Retro, used the big board cause it had looked light while rigging, but it built. Made about 3/4 jibes (stay dry, not pretty!) and had fun close up with kiters. Made a few small jumps, including an unintentional nose-first landing (didn't fall, but 30 lb of board hard to control in air I guess). 14 kites out and just me. So nice to work out the cobwebs from 11 days no sailing!
