That last shot is Donny, kind of on a freestyle fish. There wasn't much wind left then, and he was on a 10.

And to echo Travis, the BBQ was awesome--if you've never tasted Mike's cooking, you're missing out.

whats the verdict on thie SW at 3rd today? Gonna switch?

Sorry I hogged the 10 rebel for so long I had a really hard time letting it go, which is why i didnt. Well I sorta brought it in about 4 times to see if anyone wanted it but i guess they were all out on the water then. Ooops!

Being as though this is clearly a love affair, I think I will have to give my new Rebel a woman's name. maybe Rebellina :)

now that would be wierd!

Ramsey thinks once the fog burns a little the normal direction will come back but for anyone looking to kite now alameda is rippin bigtime. Dont trust the sensor its all whitecaps out there now.

update, alameda sucks, whitecaps dying off and straight on shore.

3rd didn't quite deliver today. Weird wind direction and holey. A few people got out, we opted to not pump up which proved to be a good decision, many ended up wading through the mud when the wind died.

We head home first thing tomorrow morning. Thanks everyone for coming out and trying the new North gear this week. Remember to support your local dealers who keep your beaches accessible and safe for all of us.

If you make it to the Gorge this summer be sure to say Hi if you see any of us around town, at the beach or on the water!

Have a great season, see you next year!

Travis
