Maybe Today?
Accuweather and SP Aviation weather are calling for some wind this PM. I'm Taking my gear to work and will bail early if its blowin. I think I'll stop on the way in and light a candle.

I just got back from the doc for that skin cancer wimpass thing on my nose.
It was blowing when I went and it is still blowing. Storm related (just offshore and a little to our North), but Doppler doesn't look too menacing. I am going to the Undertow to see how it is. I am thinking it is solid 15 plus from the skycam. Hope it doesn't storm before I get an hour in. |
Well.. the storm passed and it rained... then it started blowing like crazy and it cleared up a bit. I was just trying to skip out of work early when the 2nd wave of rain started a few minutes ago.
Looks like I may get skunked :( I'll be at the backside regardless at around 5:30. |
It was weird today. Looked windy, but was actually about 12 knots max (at the Undertow). I brought the wrong kite too, the 11m. Luckily that thing has unreal low end, so I actually rode for a couple hours. Then it rained. Wind then picked up momentarily prior to the rain and after it.
Then it died. Russky was out there. I saw Randy (or someone else on a 'roo) riding up near Upham. All in all better than not riding and fun hanging out. Not nearly as windy as it looks though. I bet it must be nuking out in the Gulf and throwing up some waves/chop, cuz the waves/chop were really disproportionate to the wind we had out there which made it look windier than it really is. Maybe that same wind will be here in a couple days (?) Thanks for letting me try your kite during the storm, Russky. :p |
It is definitely blowing better now than it has in the last 4 weeks. (6:45PM Monday)
Backside of Skyway and beaches should be great! I'd be there if I could walk. Maybe a couple more weeks :0( Jayson |
TI was fantastic! solid 15-20. I left at 6:30 and it was still blowing good..
Definitely a washing machine out there today. |
Yeah. It definitely picked up a lot, probably around 4:30 or so (5 mins after I left the beach :( ). BS SW was pretty good. Rode til sunset. About ten riders out there.
|
pass-a-grille was really good. rode for like 3 hours straight. only once was underpowerd.. most the time the lil rain storms kept me litt.
|
Rode with steve-o from about 1pm-7:30pm jacked on a 12mSB2. Only got rained on for a few minutes. Spent most my time chasing the dolphins around and enjoying the sun. What an awesome day!
