Sun EB

[Unimog Bob]

The forecast isn't anything to write home about, but it is the day before new years and we're talking about kiting in board shorts and rash guards, how much better could it be. Say a prayer for those hearty souls living in the North. I'll be at East Beach, I'm going to let my daughter work on water starts, so we'll try to stay out of everyones way.

Sounds good.
I think the forecast for tomorrow is actually better than today, and today was decent..... :)

[tomstock]

Going to try to DP tomorrow. NP was stink.

Where you gonna be Scott?

[Skyway Scott]

Not much reason to rush out today, it should pick up around noon.
Doppler looks good for a funneling of sse to ssw. That usually peaks right around then for a few :cool:

Not much reason to rush out today...

Good, because I feel like sh*t. Ate 8 Reeses peanut butter cups, a Kit Kat bar, and a big-ass bag of gummy bears when I got home yesterday. Not recommended.

Scott,
how about sticking your head out of your window and giving us a report? Is it blowin yet? Looks like it might be a slow start, but pick up through out the day.

Usually when it looks like this (strong band to the west) it is not a gradual pickup but a switch gets hit.
I am gonna wait today and hope for the "turbo" switch around noon. Hopefully it will happen.
I do wish that band of showers were closer (but not too close).

I would guess 9 to 11 right now.
Rig big and get ready to get blown off if you go out now. (I hope) :D

[Unimog Bob]

Thanks Bro, I'm going to head out so the daughter can get some time then I'll ride later. See you guys out there.

Whadya think wind guru Scott, is it gonna happen at EB? I hate a 40 minute drive for a skunker. It looks almost rideable.

rode 16m waroo 4 2hrs until noon. jumping and having fun. 4mph on the beach, 10mph up high.

[Skyway Scott]

Whatta let down.
Oh well, experimented with extra long lines and messed around all while getting sun burned and dehydrated (in the dead of winter?!)
:rolleyes: :confused:

It was a let down however, that SKYWALKER board kept me alive and upwind for one final tack. Scott, let me now the final price on Donna"s and I'll get the money together.

Don't worry, I'll mover a little faster this time...I can get with you tomorrow and cash out.

[Skyway Scott]

Okay, cool.

[tomstock]

What you guys didn't have fun? Weird... I had enough for unhooked jumps and back rolls ... guess East Beach wasn't as good? I counted 12 kites at NSW.

The 2007 Best bar is soooo nice.
