Gabe and I were hitting some beautiful waves on the EC with stand up's. We missed the wind but had a blast none the less. And yes we got fried.
As some of you know I have been surfing the FL waters for most my life. Gabe did his 3rd session in his life and he is dialed in. I was amazed at how quickly he picked up the sport of surfing with a stand up. Those things catch just about anything. |
I'm still beat from yesterday. A five hour session in July?? WTF?? My hands are also red and swollen. Maybe after work today too???
I didn't see the plane over sunset beach, but the yellow and orange SB2 was me!!! I tried to jump closer to you!! LOL!! |
Yesterday was definitely nice. It really got good starting at about 4 til 6. I too got fried on my face, which wasn't too bright
considering I have already had two cancers removed. :confused: LMAO. Accuweather pretty much nailed yesterday's wind (they tend to underestimate) and they have it blowing again this afternoon, so it's possible. :) |
I saw the huge flag on Waters and Anderson pretty well extended and I couldn’t believe it so I went home grab all my stuff and double check that my kite was not rotten after not being used for quite a while. Drove to Picnic around 4pm and as usual nobody was at the beach. Blowing 15 – 18 knots until 6pm. Well powered on my 14 …Booya!!

Did you see any big sharks? I hear you can see them everywhere from the air. |
Sharks!!
On my Flight yesterday I paid particular attention to see if I could spot any wildlife such as Sharks. I flew the entire route between 900 and 1000 feet to stay out of Tampa Intentional class B airspace and get a close look at the ground and water. Surprisingly I did not see any Sharks, just pods of Dolphins, You can tell the difference.
I was surprised to see a lot of kiting spots to the south of Tampa that never seem to get mentioned, down around Sarasota. Nice blue water sand bars that where populated yesterday with kiters. Yes I did see the Yellow and Orange SB2 at Sunset....Nice Air!! |
Had a nice sesh at IRB, got out there around 6, wind turned on at 6:30 and was cracking at 9 when I left.
Wind was almost directly on shore with lots of swimmers so it was a little difficult getting away from shore but once I was out there was able to ride both ways up and down the beach for a good 1.5 hours, nice sunset session! |
