It was a solid trip for sure. Bitter-sweet not getting to wavesail at Long Beach, but as you said SUP sessions were a bonus! Your presence was missed. I added a couple of pictures to the post below to make it complete, a small gallery to the Sat morning SUP and one sample shot of this mornings session although it doesn't represent the conditions very well (I didn't shot much as I was distracted with getting breakfast eaten and wanted to get out on the water before the wind stirred things up).

As BWD said: `Another mediocre trip.` :D ;)

Outstanding work Dave! Looks a wee bit better than mediocre to me. Nice call to get it all. You will soon be considered a local over there. Sweet pics of the sup party. Much better than working. :mrgreen:

At least we know where C36 is going to retire ... guess who is going to knock that door every weekend for a place to crash ... :twisted:

Locally, hoping my 7m sail is big enough for a few planing days as there is no wind or waves, even considering Squamish :cry:

Gabriel, keep the faith man. Don't take the 7.0 out just yet, you'll disappoint the wave god's...

:shock: Hmmm... ...Slappy might be a better candidate for this one (he has half the setup already - the inflatable SUP), he would just need to get or make a alaias. Oh, and find some decent barreling waves. :D ;)

That also looks like a great way to make 'friends' at a crowded break (launching your paddle and inflatable SUP to roll in unattended each time). :roll: :? :evil:

Probably the last SE in a while :) . Tide's good. Afterwork exercise @PR.
If it holds... :?

pshaw, why use 2 boards when you can use 3!

I already have my finless skim and the inflatable SUP, might be interesting on a small wave low tide day at WB but too much work per wave.
