So what’s the destination of choice today? I see 2 kiters out at Jericho but it says it’s only 12 knots. Terminal clocking good wind atm. Andrew? :D

Windy at YVR and looks decent on the Jericho webcam. I’m heading down to Locarno about 11am, since tides will soon be too high for Acadia. Any OSRs would be appreciated.

I'm hoping to check Acadia out around noon. I think it may still be ok but more questionable mid afteroon. Could be wrong at which point I'd look at the other options.

Lots of Vitamin D for me at South Chesterman. 2 hour session with 8m + surfboard

6 Celsius 4 feet wave 15 knots NW. 5 kiters


Not quite chimichanga but it’ll do after a cold session

North west in the morning at JSC on the foil with Phil and Dimitri for a couple hours was way over powered on the outside. Others got out later as it switched SW but was difficult to get off the beach. I stoped at Ambleside on the way home for another couple hours on the 7m and TT in huge swell with two other TT kiters. Fantastic day on the water and in the sun.
