I might make it out today ... but im just thinking getting to park point is going to be a pain today (due to grandmas). There is a beach in two harbors I might try instead.

Conditions were great today! 13m kites and surfboards. I started with a 9m until it got caught on a wave and ripped from the Le to the trailing edge went with the 13 after that. Geo was ripping on the 13 and strapless, he has that thing dialed!. Sky harbor Kept reading ESE but it was straight onshore! What an Awesome sesh...
