Nice! The old tired man in me did not feel it enough to get going this morning for a SW. Maybe if I was thinking White Rock instead of FT I'd have been there. Enjoy!

2.5 hr wave session at White Rock in SSW 16-22. First on 8m+surfboard then 12m+surfboard. Some amazing waist high breaking waves made for fun bottom turns enjoyed by kiters on surboards (Sam, Bill and me). About a dozen other kiters on 10m and 12m.

Good session for me at Ferry Terminal on 5m.
Strong at 10am around 20kn then stayed around 15-16kn. When it dropped to 13kn I came back switched to 7m. Did few runs and it picked up again, switched back to 5m for another 1h.
Weeds were ok for 2h then later there were patches of weeds in few places, full stop when I hit them. They were like tide and wind come and go today.
Lots of kiters and wingfoilers
