East Beach Sunday Morning
 
Had fun for about 2 hours this morning at East Beach. It was great to see everyone again!

I got blown off the water on m Royal and I can usually hold it down on winds like yesterday. I guess I'll need a smaller kite now.....

I'm looking for a 12M Royal,RRD or something in that range.

Not as BIG G.

i missed ittttt. surf down south was great though.

shogun1204 08-18-2009 08:14 AM

Yeah stinks you were not there man. Next time, might hit the Cable Park this weekend if there is no wind. Just great to see a lot of familiar faces, and some of bros! It's great to be home again!

JoshTaylor 08-18-2009 09:26 AM

yeah i wish i could have made it.. the night before kind of prohibited me from getting up remotely early if you know what i mean lol but give me a call about the cable! i'm so in!

Youngins today. ;)
I was up til 3am after a poker sesh and still made it out.
See ya' next time Josh... just ribbin' ya'. :)

Tried to "beat the crowd" by getting there before 8 am. I simply could not believe how many people were there by 9am. I am guessing 30.
I guess that's what happens after no wind for awhile.

Welcome back to St. Pete (Tampa), Roy.
Among yourself, Gary and Toby I would guess 110 pounds were lost.
Way to go guys with the fitness and dedication. I am doing the opposite and gaining it, but you guys deserve props for getting fit. :cool:

Great this morning (tuesday). Got out to EB at 7am. Kited from 7:30am to 10. All by my lonesome which was actually really nice. Could practice practice practice.

Saw a BIG short triangular shaped "something" leap from the water about 50 yards from me and about a 100 yards from a fishing boat. Anyone? Please tell me it was probably just a ray.

rigger 08-18-2009 12:27 PM

Scott - You should of came to the SW and there were only 3 people there. However, you would have been hard pressed finding a parking spot. I’m sure EB had a similar problem.

Unimog Bob 08-19-2009 12:42 AM

I think the large ray is the best bet on that.
Yeah, I wasn't sure if it was going to shift due S or even SSW.
SW sucks on those directions (I think), so went to EB.

That's definitely no sleep, Josh.

Just got home from Derby Lane. Cop pulled me over on the way home.
He gave me a "drunk test". Geezus.. I haven't had a drink in 2 years... especially while playing poker. Saw a guy lose 1,200 tonight cuz he was drunk. 450 was to me. The total irony of testing me to see if I am drunk is that I was just sitting with 3 of them (they prol'ly didn't get pulled over).
Me drunk after poker... yeah.. right.
Cops really have nothing better to do in St. Pete? :rolleyes: (rant over)

Pedro 08-20-2009 06:08 PM

I got skunked!
 
I'm very happy that all you guys got to ride....I came from far away and was not able to ride. I arrived right around 12pm and there were three kiters in the water struggling while 30 kiters waited for wind to pickup again. Unfortunately, nothing came......it's all good, I love going to East Beach and seeing a lot of familiar faces....this is the place where it all began for me.....catch you guys next time!:)

toby wilson 08-20-2009 06:42 PM

Yeah, Sunday was fun. Sux that I'm on my working weekend now...gonna miss the TS if it hits here...gotta work Fri, Sat, Sun nights and will most likely sleep all day.
BLAH...

toby wilson 08-20-2009 09:08 PM

Scott - Cops pulling you over
 
We've all seen how you drive when there is wind or a poker engagement you need to get to...enuff said, lmao. (Just messin with ya buddy)
