Tswassen is showing 13 kts and dropping, I'm a little confused by the high wind at the airport, is there somewhere to kite with 20kts?

Jericho webcam is showing no wind. Maybe there will be some foiling at Jericho later this afternoon...

Thanks for taking video Slappy! I've got to say ripping around in those small waves with your surfboard looks really fun.

Sunday 1pm Jericho. Windy. Going to try foil and 4.2. Maybe could have brought the 3.7. Why don’t I just always pack everything?

Second consecutive day Spanish Banks delivered. Morning session was just Dmitri, Sam, AJ and I, Steady W 18-24 good for 12m+surfboard then 9m+surfboard. Still choppy but not as crazy choppy as yesterday. Fun gybing off the waist high waves by Dog Beach. The kiter crowd joined in the afternoon. Excellent 2.5 hrs TOW under sunny sky.

Hey Alton where do you park and launch when you sail dog beach? I should have brought my wing down there today but wanted to stay near home and get some work done. Unfortunately the wind never picked up out here.
