Tuesday Evening Easterly

[Alton]

Anyone chasing the evening easterly?

Late, wet, high tide, onshore, chop, cold, massey tunnel hell ... the worst possible combinations

Not exactly selling it! I MAY go but not inspired by an easterly without a prospect (to my eye) of any SSE. Plus I was on the water the previous 3 out of 4 days.

Excellent value statement Alton!

I may drop by later morning/early afternoon to see what is going on. iKitsurf is predicting a WNW today at Jericho, which I find odd given that I could not find another forecast that had a WNW prediction.

Cheers

72nd can be epic flat water on a NEly

Is it kiter hunting season?

[Dellis]

never had an issue in 20 years of kiting there. Hunters are very friendly it’s the bird watchers who are the extremists.

Well, there’s one lonely winger at BB braving the elements. Having issues with the BB webcam. Anyone else?

Sweet 2 hrs session at the super secret spot. Tony - not the super secret Olympic run at Cypress. Joe paved the way on his 9m+TT ... then I joined the party lit on 8m+surfboard in E 22-26 with clean knee high waves outside. Soon Roxstock (10m) and other kiter then Dan (10m) joined in. Fortunately, we didn't get shot at
