Yep concur...and it is the outside break... U may get too cocky and do a back loop off of it and if ur really ...i mean really!! unlucky the rare breaker is followed by four of its friends that make u sputter a little....the odds of that are very low...and will teach u better judgement. It's all just water ...u can swim after your gear and usually easily /hopefully catch it before the beach break to save your sail/mast....in the end it's a good story...ask me how I know don't worry so much, just go...I'll hold yer hand buddy..well..unless whitey chimes in besides...there are choices, chicken gybes are a good one, u don't have to go there unless u want to, eh?
Wish less, sail more!!

Ouch wd?! Damn. That hits hard. Tough love I guess?winddoctor wrote:Yep, there are choices like chicken jibing, not going to the coast, learning kiting, and writing about going to the coast next year...
OK....that's it then. No more posting in this thread by me until I go to the Coast. I must face my fear...likely last two weeks of June, first week of July for me.

Starting to watch the forecasts for when my window opens (June 17). Some interesting early indications (although still early).
Swell trending up.
Some background south swell.
Wind seems to be showing a promising pattern on June 18 (if I remember the MoreWind tutorial correctly).
Hoping. Watching. Waiting.
