    despite seized up back got there with Ruskie for a full 4.8 sesh :P for a bit, then huge hole near launch made everyone stand around for an hour when finally it came in again, still had to rig up to get to it though which made for bit of work outside, flooding hard as it was. Beautiful non-hate kinda day, nice waves and water, no traffic on (few swiftsure types) or off water which was great!! Few Heli attempts, couple of looping thoughts with no result :(

Conditions were awesome for the first hour (17-20 lifty and very warm), good for the second, although it got a bit wierd and light near shore - so I just stayed out! Only a few of out at Cook today, and was actually out all alone for 1/2 an hour! Was blowing 14-16 for my last hour. Got up and personal with the swiftsure boats earlier, and actually go ... (more)

    What a difference a day/fogbank can make. Was out on the 5.2, very overpowered and decided to do one more run, them rig down. Of course i get thrown and dinged the nose of my board again. So the day was over that. More board repair for me.

    One of the best days I've had at Gordons! Spent the first two hours on the 9M. Nice waves and some swell too. Lots of lift today made for the highest jumps for me so far. A little scary but ohhh they felt good. John and Grant W. were jumping sky high all afternoon on 12's! Martin came out and Christina did both a windsurfing session then a kite session. The last hour on the 12M was real smooth. Saw the HMCS ORIOLE cruise by, and several other swiftsure yachts passed.

    3.00 hours Electric Rock 102L
    Ezzy wave 4.7
    Way too much float on the e-rock! Time to acquire a smaller board..

    I was practicing my lifts, flying off the top of the lip and getting some good air.

    Jibes are not there yet. With all the chop it was difficult. I am just starting to consistantly get the board around but I am still losing my balance. My footing is still not good.

    Best wind I have ever seen at Nitnat!

    Not sure what the inflow direction is. I guessed West.

    Was on my way to JR but Gordon's looked like it was about to fill in and it did so I stayed there and had a pretty powered up session on the 5.6. Only 3 of us out there. Could've been on the4.7 at times. :)

    Ok can we please get wind AND swell together on the same day next time! Swell yesterday and lots of wind today. A few swellettes at first then they disappeared. Perfect conditions for tricks - great little ramps near the point and smooth on the inside. Lots of vulcan attempts at first, then tweaked the knee and back on one high one. Hoss, 360s, upwind 360s, tacks. Warm too. Good to see Grant, Richard and Ross rippin it up out there.

    Good 5.5 session. Could have sailed 5.0, but too lazy to rerig. Quite choppy, hard to find nice ramps. First time out on smaller gear this season. A good warmup! Don and Morley were out. Everyone else was at JR. Saw Joe and Christine, but didn't recognize them with all that kite gear.
