Island will be as good as Locust & Whidbey Friday

On a SE my impressions are:
AFB Comox (sand beach and clean waves) > CB > Locust > Ebby Landing
This based on:
- A sample size of over 34 sessions (and even more trips as Whidbey didn't have wind on a few).
- Personal preference for reliable small gear wind and waves (both jumping quality and frontside riding options over onshore conditions).
15 - Locust
11 - CB
7+ - Whidbey Island
1 - Air Force Beach, Comox
I would be interested in sailing Double Bluff/Useless Bay, but would be hard pressed to head to Whidbey Island again for a SE. West at West Beach is challenging/fun and that spot is worth the trip. IMHO
