Abrielle/AltonJr, Dave Culver and I were first to arrive at 8:30am. Abrielle pumped 9m. Dave and I pumped 12m. Launched Abrielle only to discover 9m was too big so Abrielle pumped 7m and I took the 9m.
My 9m (+surfboard) was at the verge of suicidal but I had no choice. Got blown off the water 3 times heading out (S 30 gusting 40) so stayed close to shore where wind was more civilized S 20-30. Wind got crazy after we packed up at 12:30pm - S 30 gusting 45!
Never seen the Locust parking lot FULL. Big Canadian turn out including Lucas/Faceplant, Clay, Reggie, Joe, Lorne, Cash, Jerry, Stan, Laura, Rob D ... and 2 windsurfers Norvin and Dave/C36.
After returning to Canada we got Michael's OSR and drove to Tsawwassen for a double session. Our sore muscles and heavy rain in Tsawwassen changed our minds.
