Anyone heading up in the next week (or 2 months) that I could score a ride with?
I'd love to check it out.
Happy to chip in for gas.
Thanks, Andrew

Day 17 - Steady SW 18-20 on 12m + surfboard. Went strapless for almost 2 hrs working on tacks ... not even close ... spent plenty of time body dragging for my board. Might be worthwhile to watch some instructional videos this evening.

Too hot in the city made for rough sailing in Squamish. It was a strangely warm wind that liked to change directions and strength every few minutes over a Nexen. Ended up squeaking out 1.5 hours of underpowered riding.
Even still the combo of warm air and warm water made it quite pleasant though.
Saw my first Wing Surfer in the wild as well as an EFoil for the first time.
Day 18 - Finally a strong session at Squamish. SW 25g30 on 9m+surfboard then 7m after lunch. Almost 3 hrs working on tacks. Almost got one but my ass touched the water so I won't count it ... but I managed to ride out of the tack ... sweet !!!!
Here's the video I studied
