Scored a nice half hour before it dropped off. Sailed for another hour slogging out and catching wave rides in. Feels like fall getting 2 sessions in a row! :D

Michael (5.8/110L windsurfer) and I (10m kite) scored 45 minutes (7:45am) in SSE 18-12 at the Boat Launch and 3rd Avenue before it tanked. Small clean swell.

Hey Alton,

You take that sweet surfboard out for a spin yet?

Not yet. I started with my twin tip and lost some ground in this light wind. So I decided to enjoy the rest of the session downwind instead of returning to fetch my surfboard.

Micheal, I wasn't comfortable with the south wind in my rookie state. However I got good wind at the ferry terminal. Today marks the first day when I got both feet into the foot straps.

:shock: it was awesome!
