Epic day at CB today . 10 windsurfers + 2 kitesurfers + a surfer (not sure how that went along). Very lit on my 3.7m/74L board.

Boundary Bay delivered the goods today! I paid the price with some painful body slams and rinsing though. Super nice waves but the wind didn't really cooperate. When I launched it was 30 knots but shortly went down to 20, thankfully it ramped back up to around 25 but it was on and off most of the day. Was a bit challenging when it was light as the waves were X large for the Bay and I got pounded in the break a few times. One really bad rinsing ripped my camera off the wing, luckily I had the tether on! When the tide dropped it got really challenging with the steep waves and white water everywhere. The wave rides were some of the best I've had out there though, so that made up for all the punishment. Tried to stay out longer and sail with the windsurfing crew but I was exhausted! I'm out of shape. Thanks to BWD for the GPS tracks, it's so easy to upload and post!

pretty sweet session, up and down wind at first then most left and of course it turned up and got good! great jumps alongside Jens, a dry push loop today, stoked!

Perfect wave day. Early morning session (SSE 20-25 on 8m+surfboard) had the best waist to chest high wave rides between the boat launch to Centennial. Late morning / early afternoon (SSE 25g30 on 6m+surfboard) had glassy waves.

Huge turnout ... even plenty of visitors from Squamish

Centennial (2023 April 8)







Zoom. Zoom. Looks like the contractor got a little enthusiastic about the beach clean-up. Tsawwassen was on it early on wing. I took to the water as the wind inhaled and was undergunned on 4.5/92 until the wind rebounded. Some semi-organized wind swell trains rolling through off out from Centennial. Once I had enough power to drive upwind I joined Tsawwassen in the wind swell garden off the second bank out from 3rd. Fun spot that – some with girth and a few crumblers. Fun to see most of the windsurfers (Gleb, Brad, Simon, Richard) congregate on Tsawwassen’s orange wing like it was a beacon and share in the fun! Wind was still a little fickle at times. Bare hands a touch chilly but manageable. Exited before most of the sand was revealed. Glad the wind came back!

Wind seemed pretty up and down but it was still a nice day on the water.
