Friday Dawn Patrol , B 4 Sunrise!
Putting this out cause nobody is prolly planning much but,
Cold front when? Friday morning Wind direction & speed? Most probable Due North Maybe 20kts prolly die by 10am Where? Best spot for due North is Southside Skyway @ low tide heads up! http://www.ikitesurf.com/windandwher...n=Tides&days=7 http://www.ikitesurf.com/windAndWher...orecast+Graphs WHO IS IN????????? |
im good to go.... might be doing an NP on thurs.......
|
forecast isnt looking very good right now, but at least its low tide ate 7:30am..... right raul???
|
The seabreeze has been pretty good the last couple of days.
I am gonna hope for it again today about 4 or 4:30 (fingers crossed). I bet Saturday and Sunday late afternoon are decent for that East wind (maybe the morning too, just seems the late afternoon is a lot more dependable). :) Was there a seabreeze over on your side at all the last couple of days, Raul? |
Popeye, clear your inbox

usually dry weather like this it does ; but then this has been the wackiest year for wacky wind in years......... |
Yep. Whacky.
I guess it might blow in the a.m. Who knows? Thing is though, the dawn patrols have been lame for so long, I don't even give them much consideration anymore. Definitely different than just 3 years ago when the dawn patrol was commonly the best wind you could get (solid 20 to 25), til about 9 am, anyway. I think I am gonna drive North tomorrow and hope for a reasonable NNW in the afternoon at the beach. |
sorry i cleared it...
|
scott,

No real seabreeze today. Still nice out there though.

im heading to the SW for a pre DP ride with my new board lights :)
ill be there around 630 |
survey says............ 22-25kts NE..............skyway!!!!!!!!!!
|
solid 18-20 when i started at Dark:30 and then tampered off to 15 or so by 7:30...
definately a good start to the DP season.... |
so wasnt as epic as the skyway meter made it out to seem..
but sounds like i did miss out on some solid riding.. oh well.. i got to sleep in. :) glad you are back on the water danny! |
beg to differ, it was pritty epic.
anytime I'm solidly powered up on the 12m is prity epic good to see ya back Danny! BTW the green and yellow lights are the shnizit! |

I got there late, but was LITT on my 15m for about 45 minutes in 15 plus.
Trying to do handlepasses on a litt 15 Hyper isn't do-able (not for me, anyway). Great weather for sure. Raul was right, I was wrong. I know that makes BigR's day. :wink: |
Scott, I don't really care who forecasts the wind better ,
Actually, I hope we are both right and there is wind day and night all the time but , I think it'll be windy early tommorow and sunday and monday, I've been wrong before and it sure won't be the last time .. Anything more is extra pudding on the pizza |
I'm changing my official forecast to wind next 3 nights now, or at least sat night and all day + night sunday LMAO TODAY EAST WINDS 5 TO 10 KNOTS. SEAS 2 TO 3 FEET. BAY AND INLAND WATERS A LIGHT CHOP. ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. TONIGHT EAST WINDS AROUND 15 KNOTS. SEAS 2 TO 4 FEET. BAY AND INLAND WATERS A MODERATE CHOP. SUNDAY EAST WINDS 15 TO 20 KNOTS. SEAS 2 TO 4 FEET. BAY AND INLAND WATERS A MODERATE CHOP. ISOLATED AFTERNOON SHOWERS. SUNDAY NIGHT EAST WINDS 15 TO 20 KNOTS. SEAS 3 TO 5 FEET. BAY AND INLAND WATERS A MODERATE CHOP. MONDAY EAST WINDS 15 TO 20 KNOTS. SEAS 2 TO 4 FEET. BAY AND INLAND WATERS A MODERATE CHOP. SLIGHT CHANCE OF AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. |
yeah! Looks like it's going to be good but I'm in town so don't get too excited.
So Scoot is it going to be better in the morning tomorrow or in the afternoon???? |
That answer depends largely on when you will be there :) (just kidding)
If forced to choose a time frame on East wind, I always put my bets on late afternoon, you know that. Not to say it won't blow all day (who knows?), but late afternoon until sunset and night riding almost never fails on Easts. Early afternoon is the worst bet, but it might happen, I guess. Hey Kev, I spent ALL morning learning to ride blind. I actually went 50 yards once before eating it. :) It definitlely is an odd feeling and weird learning curve. |
scott, were you going unhooked or hooked...
|
Scott. That's Excellent! are you popping into it? We'll see tomorrow hopfully. Once you dride that way for a bit it is really easy just like riding toe side. Are you still wearing that seat harnes though. That makes it much harder... Hopefully I'll see you tomorrow. Maybe I'll plan on riding the whole day!!!! I need to work on my handle passes.
|
Not unhooked (duh... today was first day I even tried... not gonna try it unhooked).
Yeah. Seat harness. Unfortunately, my back kills me when I wear a waist harness. I might start wearing one for an hour or so when I ride. I can't wear one much more than that without low back pain. I was ollie hopping into it. It does put a lot of strain on the harness and spreader, I can tell you that. I snapped the spreader in two!! Good thing Randy and Cindy have gear out there to buy. |
yep - the waist harness works a little better just because it slides around a little.
anyway, I guess this afternoon looks better than this morning now. only reading 12-13 currently...... |
I think it'll soon pick up ( unless Kevin shows up ) |
I'm going to wait a bit so you may be right. but accuweather doesn't show it picking up until about 3pm.
