[bandito]

-------------------------------------....................
Wind wise on GSpott it 10pm GFS zoom/gust hourly reading, looks best at BB 3rd AV around 10am to 12 or 1, building more n more n more in afternoon, culmulating to most power 4-5pm gusting 45/50kn and i believe someone can jump 70" on twin wt a wave ramp, but probably will screw the landing (trick Does not count!).I sure will not jump as im old scare and uninsured for permenent disabilities.


i need a 4.5 m kite or add 40 lb of beer fat ....

Iwindsurf presently 30g37 mph SSE. I estimate 3.7 windsurf. Gusts have been 40 so maybe 3.4. Thinking morning shift (not dawn patrol) as I don't want to see it higher

The Ferry Terminal sensor appears to be down.
I wonder if the wind has taken it out

OSR Centennial. Just me here!. Looking good. Thinking 4.5 or 3.7.

On the cam it looks like all the small kites are struggling a bit while Cash is on something bigger looking well powered. Waves look pretty marginal considering the winds. Best tides of the day are 2-5.

Not looking as strong as the forecast. Anyone got an actual reading on the wind atm?
