    Meh. Lots of slogging for a few powered-up gusts. Stayed dry till last run, discounting jumping off in the shallows working on tacks on inside.

    Should have caught some SW before it turned W, but forgot my wetsuit (Don't wanna hear about it Kus, its the first time for a long time! :lol: )

    1.20 hours Ocean Rodeo ONE 12m
    Got on the water @ 6:30, and that was probably the perfect day to test the range of the ONE kite, and I must say, it performed VERY well. Worring about gusts is a thing of the past, and I think the Fun factor increases too. Despite the up and down nature of the wind, I saw a lot of smiles out there! It says a lot about the wind that there were men on everything from an 8 (GM) to 16 (Andrew?) and people were doing fine. Almost any kite was the ideal one today!

    Prophet Phat-'model says 6pm'-Bhudda called it right on. Wind came up around 6pm. the Evo finally hit the water, albeit briefly. Gusty NW conditions were better for the big board. helis back on track today. Pioneered the 'kelp forward' - hucking in a kelp bed where kelp grabs fin and prevents board rotation, but rider gives-her and does the 360 sans board. 8) good fun. :D Where was [b:1adfb7933b]KUS[/b:1adfb7933b]??

    :D :D Only double smiler today. Arrived and on the water by 4:00pm. Tried sailing up to Kook St but wasn't making much ground as fighting the tide so stayed near Trial for more of that flat water ripping! About 10 mins of pumping to plane otherwise super powered!! On reach went waaay out...felt like 1/2 way to Port Angeles but probably not far at all. Big rollers off Clover point, otherwise mostly flat. Top speed was 42.9km/h and total distance travelled was 39.8kms. Gotta get smaller fin and super flat wa ... (more)

Took off out to Trial, then port tack all the way down to Broachie Ledge marker past the VooDoo chop in front of KOOK St. which wasn't much fun. Then looooong Starboard tack all the way back to Trial. Water was soooooo flat just West of Trial which made for great speed runs and jibe practice.

    Like Dave said, squalls seemed to be coming thru but I still got some good TOW. Left at 5 and it looked like it was getting steadier. Good fun.

    A bit of everything today. It started out looking like it would be epic - monster fog bank and clear in the valley. Then the cloud came in from the E and the wind got light. At first it was up and down 12-15kts, then it filled in 20-25 for a while, then down to 18 or so. Partly cloudy with some light rain. Good fun with Mf4, RG and Bean.

It was my first day of not having to walk up the beach - FINALLY made it back to my launch point!! And, was able to get into both footstraps. Although I felt as though the board was somewhat out of control when I was in the back strap - maybe the 48cm fin. Maybe the board/sail combo. Maybe the sailor. I suppose I could also include the fact that I didn't crack the nose of the board as a bre ... (more)
