Those big swell came straight thru the gate and were breaking on the Ashby Shoals. Made for some good SUP action with super long rides :) S*urf S*urf S*urf ^^

Was it just me, or did it almost feel like a summer's day at 3rd yesterday (cold water notwithstanding)? Great, clean wind all afternoon. Gusty only for a few small periods, but the rest was just perfect.

Don't you people work?

I managed to get a late skunk session at Stinson sunday, and another after work skunk session at Larkspur on Monday. I guess its give and take, can't win em all. For all the good choices I've made about where to kite I defintely dropped the ball.

Is it Dillon? Is that you JOE? The surf was freaking huge at stinson... really wanted to carve up that line so had to roll the dice.

I dunno Joe... that was a freaky ride last time. I vowed to never engange in an experience like that again. 8 of us left the beach, only 3 made it back. If the clouds are clear i may be game. This time I'll bring a 5 meter and surfboard. I thought that was your kite shadow??

That pic DJ Guac took on the box kite is SICK!! I imagine Doran was freaking awesome that day... another bad location call on my part (although I rode the secret local spot).

I'll be around this spring/summer. Would like to trek out to Tubes if you want to show me the ropes!! Bet the shawdows are even bigger out that way.
