    A nice warm sunny afternoon session on the Straits.

    Light to moderate wind, chop and some swelletts to turn on.

    I wonder how many sessions and/or hours I have on my OR Bronco 12m?

    Smooth swell, then choppy
    1.50 hours Starboard Acid 77 8'1"
    Neil Pryde Zone 5.6 m.
    :D Bolted for Gordo's as soon as I saw the press. grad. start to move up fast. Almost rigged the 4.7 right away but due to light wind inside went with the 5.6. Turned out to be solid 4.7 wind beyond 1/4 mile out, with nice smooth waist to shoulder high swells for the first 40 min. or so, then quickly went flatter with chop everywhere. Great jumping conditions at first. :)

    Got out late as I was in Vic. for the day.

    Just right on the OR 8m on the outside.

    Areas of large super smooth swells/waves where the current was going against the west wind.

    Sorry about the broken board Mr.Watson! It might have something to do with those 40 foot landings!

    Awesome day got my first clew first waterstarst ,great swell from the beach down to the river mouth. Was overpowered to nicely powered up on the 5.0 all day!!! One of the best Nitnat days I've had...one of the best days I've had. Could have been on the 4.5 for most of the day but I just could not sacrifice any of that great wind to rigging. Had my best jumps yet and was swell riding all day. Most of the time I was by myself at the rivermouth but had company from 2-3. I was having such a good time I co ... (more)

    Frustrating day today, wanted to watch events, but also

    wanted to ride.

    I ended up riding all day, and not seeing any events.

    underpowered.

    Until the end of the day.

    Then just as I was comming in from the last run.

    My dry kite snagged the only little branch sticking

    out of the water at the edge.

    That resulted in an hour long line mess to undo before

    walking back to the truck.

    Took me about an hour or two driving home to recognize

    I'd had fun.

    But I did.

    On the water by 11:30 with Windoc. It was the classic early blow that kicks up swell...only lasted for about 30 minutes. Trying to get the shuvit progression going again today. Had one shuvit into a vulcan...the shuvit was planned but the vulan was not...at least Windoc saw it...oh ya I completly ejected myself upon landing! Sailed from the end of the lake up to the upper river mouth. Fun day!

Made 0 :wink: Did a few chop hops, getting out of the water now :lol: Gave Brenna a first lesson on a big exocet lent by Lisa from the Okanagon. Thanks many times over! Also thanks to Gareths' friends and neighbour for the offer of gear! Wind had built too much for a good 1st sesh, but she still looked like she was almost there! Looked like it would nuke, but stayed 5.0.

    1st time on the 14m Bronco. Had the help of G Mac in the AM to set up the 5th line and launch later in the eve (Thanks!!). It was fairly windy for my experience level (kook) on this kite but I tried to slow everything down to keep it safe. Good launch, no hangups. Mouth dry and pasty with fear. Dove the kite, popped up, and I was off. Down wind. Quick. Tried my best to get the edge in, but it felt like one of those dreams where you are running but you can't quite get any purchase on the ground because you a ... (more)

    A nice sunny light wind day at the lake with lots of familiar faces. Tried to work the freestyle - didn't succeed. I did sail away from my first carving 360 today and did another half-dozen 90 degree vulcan attempts. Pondered the vulcan problem on the drive home and I think my problem is that I'm assuming I'm going to wipeout so i position myself to make the crash easy. Gotta fix that!

    A little rusty but an awesome warm day for my first time sailing in about a month. I really liked my new Retro. Perfect Harrison sail. It felt as light as an Ezzy when powered up, but more oomph and it goes upwind great.

    OMG what a day, silky smooth, the guys convinced me to try a kiteloop, umm, got worked trying it with my 16, but boy what a rush, tried it with the 12 and still was disorientated as I was flying through the air, but again, what a rush. The day was just plain solid wind, couldn't have asked for better as a kiter
