Thanks everyone, Sunday was great. Hopefully not the season close session.

That's great Alton! I almost landed my yearly Shaka (Difficult Windsurf move) for the year. No luck this year so far but getting way more consistent with the attempts.

Day 33 at the Spit. Scored the early afternoon session (gusty SW 16-24) on 8m+surfboard before it clocked west and crapped out.

Good times :D

Day 34 - Last (or 2nd last) day of the SWS season. Gusty and shifty S to WSW 15-25 on 8m+surfboard. Fun early afternoon session until more and more kiters started piling in.

40 knots! Oh, wait that's mph. Nice to get some strong wind and sun so late in the season. Chaotic but strong swell down at spakwus blowing till dark under a 3/4 moon. Started off looking decent today till the rain shut it down

Day 35 at Squamish.

Great way to close the SWS season with a mellow SW 14-16 session on my biggest kite - first (and last) time used this season. 12m+surfboard for me and 8m+surfboard for AltonJr.

Nice to say our farewells to the locals ... until next year my friends :D

Still blowing in the sound 20-30knts all afternoon/evening, quite the late summer push. Looking like it's probably on again tomorrow!
