Tony, based that tomorrow early morning will also have NW, it should stick, coming back stronger at 9pm. strait NW peaks are usually at 11pm and 2am.

Having said that, 16-17knots steady is hard to pass right now.

it was not in forecast at all, they are changing as they go, what a surprise. :shock: ... maybe not (rubbish forecast).

20-25knots, 8:30pm. I'll wait for surf @wb.

Post "session" splash and dash report. Just a bit too light for a 10 and surfboard. Got up on the board for 2 seconds then sunk back in the water. It was awesome.

Philippe and Chris were going well on 12 and 9 with foils. Curious to hear how Slappy does on 12 and SB, probably pretty well.

I don't think I'll drive to Point Grey again but might check out Ambleside on the way home. It actually looks like it's stronger there than Dog beach and there will be fewer dogs. Also this cloud makes me think it will be more SW than NW. We will see.
