YVR wind forecast for this afternoon just got downgraded. Too bad, the van is already packed for nought.

Furry Creek is looking good if your van is packed and ready to go. It's 5 degrees and gusting up to the mid 30s.

Nice St Pat’s Day slalom session at Locarno today , from about 1230-230 in 15-20 knots.
A couple of fun hours blasting around on 6.0/110 litres (Futura) made for a good antidote to all the social distancing.
Lots of room out there to stay more than 2m apart from the few other regular kite foilers and windsurf foilers who came out, including Francis and Kevin L.
Stay sane and healthy everyone!!

Nice one. I didn’t see that coming and didn’t look at the wind sensors at all today. And I’ve been looking every day...
