Double session !!!

1. Dawn patrol at 3rd Ave. SSE 30g35 on 5m+surfboard. Steep ramps. Waves a little organized but plenty of clean waves to be found. As sandbar appeared switched to 6m and enjoyed clean waves outside of Centennial.

2. White Rock late morning/noon was awful for strapless surfboards with dumpy waves making it impossible to get out. Glad I stuck around for an epic session with true SW 20-25 on 8m+surfboard. Breaking waves cleaned up. Super fun bottom turns under sunny sky.

Nice sunset sail on 4.7m. Some nice lumps to jump and felt like spring SW. One kiter out too.
