Forgive me yojimbo, but I just can't find any "Massive" wind forecasts on windfinder.com..

Can you give us the exact link to this prediction?

I'd even take marginal wind at this point! I just happened to check the Sherman chart a minute ago and it looked almost kitable starting at noon. I'm wondering if anyone hit it?

did you get any @ Folsom last week? To me it's just about a lost cause..

Nah, didn't get any love last week. But, I'll be in Costa Rica in three weeks so I can't complain too much. I hope I don't bust a blood vessel from excitement when I finally get some good wind.

I got some Sherman today. There was a bunch of us; Kurt, Michelle, John, Donny Sandy, Nate, Kevin, karen, and a bunch of other folks. It was nice to be riding again. It was up and down a bit but overall a great session. I hope tomorrow brings more. :)

Dave, have fun in Costa Rica, the wind is good for sure. You can be riding anything from a 12m to a 5m. It's all over and pretty crazy gusty. We get spoiled with the clean Sherman winds. It took me a few sessions to get comfortable with the conditions, but knowing your awesome riding you're gonna be kicking some ass! Enjoy.
