Friday NW

[Slappy]

Looks like we should get some wind tomorrow finally.

Launchable on the sand until 1:00.

Get it while you can.

What forecast are you using? Everything I looked at doesn't show any wind. I hope you're right, I haven't kited in 2 weeks.

[Roxstock]

Wind Alert, rasp and metar are looking better. I will head down to dog beach around 3:00 to check it out.

[Slappy]

I was basing it off:
- TAF
- EC Georgia Straight S
- Windguru Jericho
- EC Vancouver
- EC Abbotsford

in that order.

it says Iona 4-7pm on mine.

I wish they would open the service road to Iona to save the 10 minute walk.

OSR dog beach: small caps on the water. Pumping 12m and skim

[gabrielb]

seems over 14 and stable on both Jericho/Iona. No confidence on Jericho/Locarno later on + forecast at Iona seems slightly higher. Tide after 4:20pm is over 12 ft, good enough for windsurfing right out of the parking lot, no need to walk. Formula guys don't seem to be around anymore so I am talking to myself . Roberts board is ready.

Gab are you going to Iona?

[gabrielb]

Iona. eta 4:30pm (due to traffic, maybe 415pm). best I can do, and tide over 12 ft then.
15 knots at YVR, should hold for a while.

I'll help you with kite (12meter?) if you need help.
