Wow the wind came up fast this morning. There was a fog bank and I guess that is why. I put away my camping gear and setup my 10m hoping that it would be enough. Well sure enough it was for the whole day. I started with my Tiki and did a half hour. It was cool and could easily cut the chop but I could see that the wind and waves were calling for a surf board. I came in a grabbed the new Duke and proceeded to have a blast. Besides the excellent wind swell which gave me lots of slashable waves, I also continued to work on my tack turns. I made lots of nice ones, failed lots of others and managed to turn a few failures into passable winners. Great to see Heather, Gab and Maria on the beach. Wow the weather went some summer like to frontal intensity in a matter of an hour, the forecasts were pretty accurate. All in all a great couple days at the lake.
