Scott,
I would love to take you up on trying the directional. When and where? This afternoon maybe @SW? Nope,
just looked at the wind....probably noy today.

Very possible sea breeze today, it's already doing it up North.
You don't even need wind sensors, check out the http://www.baynews9.com/Doppler9000.html

go to far right, 3 down, look at Pinellas. You can see the breeze pushing in (blue line).
It might be at PaG in 20 minutes.

Holy ka shmoley.

I am waiting for the camera to update, but seems like a strong sea breeze just hit PaG.

Gary, I will be at PaG. Cam shows whitecaps.

I will be at least a mile downwind. Just put up your kite and start riding. I will be back up to you within 10 minutes, if you decide to ride out there.

It was really nice up north (3r) today. Sensors do not represent what we rode in today. 14m fully juiced just having a blast. Sea breeze kicked in at 2:15 strong out going tide at 2:30 till dark perfect combo.

Yeah,

Roberto and I rode in the Pass (PaG). Very strong outgoing tide and more wind in the channel meant we were litt and couldn't go downwind if we wanted to while riding the waves. I was getting a little confused. Many of the waves were standing waves. I looked down at the bottom at one point, and I covered zero real distance while on a wave for at least 5 seconds. That was pretty weird.

The water is more clear now than ever (I have been here 40 years).
Keeps getting better every year.
When I grew up, you couldn't see anything. It was pretty much peagreen/brownish soup. Now, it's 20 foot viz.

I had a dolphin surfing a wave with me today. He was right underneath me and turning on his back looking up at me. That was probably the most memorable water experience I have had in quite some time. He rode with me for maybe 10 seconds. Then he got ahead of me and was jumping over and over while surfing a wave, as if to say "Hey as.s munch, I don't need a board, kite, or anything to surf and jump... you are a joke... lol"

Thank surf riders for protesting the use of fertilizer by standing in your front yard at 3am in a clown suit. That'll scare anyone into being clean.

Yeah, right.
