I am documenting this to remember days when we almost miss our best experiences by questioning whether "it's worth the drive." I was looking at the RB forecast wondering whether it was worth going to Nitinat for what "could" be a good day. Glad I did. Amazing conditions. My best day there. Almost four hours. GPS malfunction left me with half a record of what was easily my longest amount of kms in one day. Started the AM with a 5m. Got a chance to take a few breaths with old friends Richard and John. And then back out on the water with a 4m for 2 mins before going back to get the 3m. Ballistic conditions all afternoon. Focused on foot switches, pumping and tacks in order of relative success.
