    Started on 4.0 in great conditions then the fog rolled in and brought 10 out of 5 suckudge factor. It felt like some one upwind was playing with the power switch. Waited for suckadge fucktor to decrease, but no luck. Had to change to warm cloth due to the close to hypothermic conditions - big mistake. If I had waited for another 15 min I could have sailed :evil: :evil:

    Sailed in close as that was where the wind was. Nice for a change. Over powered in the gusts. Been working on trying to throw some Winddoc style spray and jibing with both feet in the straps. Apparent sightings of a whale by the the beach gallery ended my session. I'm allergic to whales and hadn't taken my antihistamines.

    Thanks for the cookie and beer BA.

    Beautiful day out on the west coast. Surf started out nice and then turned a bit jumbled and sectional. Wind came up and there was optimism for a bit more wind but that never happened. Some good rides were had and only got crunched on the last ride in. Got one really nice ride on a 6 footer. The section I was not on closed out about 2 feet behind me. I was really happy about that. Planed a few times coming in. Made it out pretty well every time. It is not a lot of fun wallowing around in the impac ... (more)

    Despite the gusty onshore wind and mega chop it was somehow fun. A few nice ramps in close. Windy close to shore and light on the outside made for short reaches. The best part was watching Keen and Kus have a looping frenzy for the first hour. Keen showing total disregard for his body and doing some decent hucks on every reach :twisted: Fun times on the beach - thanks for the beer Kus and the beer bath BA...and cookies.

    What's up with the evil chop lately at G's, we seem to be stuck in a bad tidal cycle ... (more)

    once again the Friday Westerly kicked in so I ditched work early (again) to get my fill. decided it was the day to try some forward loops for the first time. got past the mental barrier of getting hurled but far from actual delivery. my last attempt (of course) resulted in pulling some kind of back muscle that turns out to be rather important to mobility so I ended my session early in hopes of a speedy recovery. stoked to have another go at it! :D :twisted:

    Surfed for a couple hours until cloud burnoff.Wind started to build,we rigged big,able to plane at times,but mostly out of the harness and slogging through the surf,great fun! The rides back were fabulous,mostly planing on the return, assisted by the waves. Back side rides with a few bob and weaves in the smaller waves. Highly recommend Eastside Wave Camp with the Orca Cruiser!

    Short but sweet session with just Tom and me. Wind eased off for about 10 minutes, and Tom landed his kite, as he had to go to dinner. So, I landed mine, not wanting to kite alone. Then the wind came back in nicely.... c'est la vie! Seems a shame, but methinks the Stanley Cup might be the reason no one was out on such a nice evening!

    :D Nice afternoon session on the straits. Started out at about 12:30.

    Some good swells, not real big but smooth. Very lifty near the shore.

    The wind was also strongest right along the shore. Fine on the 10m Rise.

    Those extra cruise ship pounds seem to help in the stronger winds! :oops:

    Once again, rippin' it up, cranking my jibes, lofting some big floaters, wishing I knew how to back loop as I skyed one after another straight up.

    Nice sunny warm day....the wind could have been more. Spent the first hour trying to slog back up wind at least I didn't have to hitchhike. Good to be out but it looks like yesterday was the day. Had a talk with Jack the webcam host and it sounds like the neighbours are getting restless there have been complaints of driveways being blocked and in some cases windpeople parking in residents driveways. He also said windpeople have been cutting through properties to get to the beach. Not too cool if we want ... (more)

    1.00 hours Grant Macpherson Custom One of a kind 149
    Ocean Rodeo RISE 10M
    First session of the year! :D Watched Marty and Ian on their big kites from the cliff until the wind came up stronger around 7:00. Just as Todd predicted, it got great just before 7:30. Impressed to see Dwayne stay upwind on the 8m! Nothing special, just wonderful to get out and shake off the rust. A few small jumps just to remind myself how it's done.

    Stoked for more of the same really soon.

    Kus forgot to mention his hitchhike of shame.
