Well done. You guys look like pros. Too bad you didn't leave any wind for the Pistol River Wave Bash :shock:

Thanks Alton. We got 8 days of sailing out of 10 so far with good wind and waves, but yes the forecast does not look great at all for the competition. Everyone had to be at a skippers meeting at 7am for a potential South wind competition at the Beachcomber but there was 0 knots so called off for the day.

Notice the order Dana introduces the two featured riders in, "Jennifer Carlisle and her companion Ryan Allderman..." :D ;)

Seriously BOTH waves are impressive and glad to see you got some great conditions! Hope there is more to come.

Sorry to read about the 40 degree ocean temps ~ brrrrrrrrrrr

Thanks Dave. The water is cool but have been toasty in 5/4 Excel top entry. Have to jump in every now and again to let water in and cool off.

Glad to hear it! Nice. :D Boots or no boots?

Glad to see the wind forecast beginning to gel for the weekend! 8-)

Boots but only because my feet were getting shredded by too much time wriggling around in the straps. Saturday is looking good, no word on which divisions they'll run.
