Wednesday westerly

Morning or evening session? I have to work in the afternoon and am tempted to get out early. Any thoughts on what will set up better, terminal, Jericho or Fiona?

3°C in the morning. Brrrrr

[shmish]

I'm going to try and make it down to Jericho after work, maybe around 3:30pm. With luck there will be some wind, sun and even 9 C.

6°C - not as bad as I thought

Spanish banks osr. Pretty gusty on the beach as usual, but’s lots of whitecaps and decent looking waves further out. I’m guessing mid 20s. Where is everybody?

On my way. Thanks for OSR

SB. Osr. Feels light on the inside but outside seems 18 to 21 NW. All alone on this launch site. 3 big kites by the Acadia Hard to tell their sizes but probably at least 12m.

Acadia OSR. 25 to 30. Three windsurfers out. Way colder than Cypress was this morning.

I don’t know about you but I’m sweating. It’s way warmer than the Spit for sure. Taking a break. Low tide Wind still blowing out there 18 to 22 knots westerly

Double session !!! After morning session snowboarding, rushed to work and lunch.

Couldn't shake off my feeling of FOMO (while nursing a torn rotator cuff from snowboarding 9 days ago) ... I grabbed by kite gear from the North Shore then darted off to Spanish Banks.

Sand bars were perfect for an easy self launch. Scored 1.5 hrs on 12m+surfboard in W 20-22 with the usual chop. Fun in the sun riding with AJ and Dan.

Pain in my shoulder was minimal - worst part was peeling off the wetsuit. So happy to discover my rotator cuff injury will not affect kiting.
