    Esquimalt was fantastic. :D :D :D Planed all the way over to Cook St again. Turned around near Finlayson Pt as the wind got a bit flukey. Otherwise, nice steady wind until about 4pm and then it died off a bit. No whales today :cry: but I got followed by the harbour patrol for a while. I don't think they like me 8) Fun little session.

    Stayed at the Lake Friday PM with GA. Started the day on the GO/7.5, and after a while switched for the 111. Things softened in the late afternoon, so back on the GO, then off for dinner. I was ready to pack it up, but the night wind reared up and I had ~45 min of way overpowered 7.5 sailing before unrigging in the dark.... :) :)

    Perfectly smooth and even. :) A little on the light side. Tried the new 16m Diablo - awesome! Then out on my reliable bronco - damn fine kite. After Ross, Ed and Trevor left, it was just Rudy and I out on the water (Larry trying hard). Rudy is 5/5 and I have had 4/5, not bad for September!

    Lucky to get what I did. Another mellow session. Sure like that 14M Bronco! The wind was south then went slightly SSW making me warry of the big switch. The kite fell part way out of the sky a few times. Got in trouble with JL because I've equalled his number of sessions on the water this year. I had to get on the water today to keep up. It'll be tough to keep up or pass him, after all, HE IS Jimmy Lewis! :wink:

    :D Honestly one of the funnest kiting days of my life. Wind was good and strong, a little up, then a little down, some lift - basically average Cook St. summer winds. But the chance to be on the water and SO warm, gorgeoulsly sunny, and with Rudy was hilarious. Still sore from laughing so hard after literally running over Rudy as he walked out of the water... Oops! Rudy had my 12, so I had to go on the 14. But it worked out well.

    :D Classic Nitinaht. After a morning earning gainful employment, I beat it to the lake (things looked tooooo good to surf the net) :). On the water at 2:30, with good wind for 6.0/95L. A few up/downs, and a soft centre at times put me out on the 111L, but certainly lots of wind for that combo. There were a few sailors and kiters, all smiling at the end of the day... Totals: 2.5 hr 6.0/95L & 1.5 hr 6.0/111L :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

    :D Wow! Did not expect that. It was mostly overcast and silent in the morning, and we just napped and read in the absolute stillness of the day, the lake was mirror like. Then, the sun came out and the wind very slowly came up. At 2:00 or so it got kiteable, and looked gorgeous. it slowly got windier and we were out after 3 and kited for hours. Robin was on an 8m, I should have been 12!

    Light winds came early, about 1030 a.m., and by noon I launched a few guys on their 12m kites, then it dropped a bit and levelled off, so I went out on the 15m, and it was a good two hours before it kicked up, and then onto the 10m for an hour or so, then back to the 15m for the final hour. Apparently it blew 7.0 on Saturday and Friday for the board sailors. Damn forecast kept all but a few people from going up, even though it turned out good windwise.

The new 95L move was better than I expected (given the wind/sail size) and it was very quick to plane, loose on the water and a nice chop hopper!!!

    Sailed with my buddy Colin back at my old slogging grounds, Squamish. First sailed my old race-slalom gear (yep, it's still stupid fast), then tried Colin's wood Kombat 95 with my old 5.8. SWEEEEET! Very fun board. Turns well, fast in the puffs, loops beautifully off flatwater and chop. :twisted: I'd highly recommend this board as an allrounder for a heavier sailor. Was nice to see some old friendly faces at the spit.

    Got back from Mt Finlayson and found out that some guys are already sailing @ IV.

    When I got to the beach BWD & KUS were done, thanks Mr. KUS for leaving me your 6.0.

    Tons of fun!

    A nice surprise! Sunny, warm, windy and September! Had a great time on the 12M for 3 hours. Even had to depower the kite most of the session. No one else there for the first hour!? Then a few kites and windsurfers showed up. Did another 30 minutes on the 14M. Nice and smooooth. Great to have Christina back on the water with me after resting an injury. :D

    What a great surprise. Nicely powered on the 5.0 (even though Bobson and SS were on 10.0's !). Not many ramps but great conditions for practicing the spinny tricks. Super warm water too. Woohooo. Topped it off with a romantic dinner with Bobson :shock: It just doesn't get any better then that.

    Picked up Bobson on the way to the beach as he was at home without a vehicle. I took pitty on him. Just brought the one sail and board down to the beach as I wasn't expecting much wind. My arms are now a little longer than normal. We had fun sailing down to the north end of James Island and back looking for calmer waters.

    1.00 hours Ocean Rodeo Zen 135
    Ocean Rodeo Bronco 12m
    Cruisy session up to Muir creek and back.

    Light on the inside but quite nice on the outside.

    It went very light so came in before the kite fell out of the sky.
