I waffled about going down figuring the wind would be weird given how warm it has been. And then I remembered that when I do that I should just go, since life is short. I am glad I did as it was a proper gale and an excellent session with some fun big swell. I was the first to arrive but Rob C. showed up soon enough and he and I had the place to ourselves for a good while. Tony showed up and joined us for a while. I literally wore myself out with all the swell slashing that was on offer. As much as I love my Duke, I do wish I had taken my Slingshot Celero as it is more fun for swell slashing. When I came in there were a few others getting ready to head out. What a splendid day!
