THERE IS WIND AND I'M AT WORK
 
100% sure I will be doing an after work run, anyone else headed out this evening, I think I will be hitting commercial or Hammock park in Boynton.

But there is wind... :D someone needs to get your priorities strait, riding till sunset never hurt anyone.

I was going it hit it early but the wind shifted offshore and is still there. I have a presentation to make in Ft. Lauderdale late in the afternoon. After that, I hope to hit it and checkout this new Waroo Pro in powered conditions.

I feel your pain. After work i got midterms.
The wind is nice today. The only thing im not liking is the temperature.

WInds look they will hold till dark :) . Going to start south of the commercial pier and head for Tiki beach on a nice downwinder off the NE NNE wind today. Anyone care to join give me a call 954-775-7658, Ken.

Let's get some riding in while the wind is here

Hope you caught it down south this evening :wink:

Boynton switched NW and shut me down on my 10M, anywhere out 200 yards from the beach was good . But get any closer then that and the land would rob the wind. I was able to ride for 15 minutes- Tops

Nothing like having a 10M start to drop from lack of wind, fold in 1/2, drift into the power zone ~ then correct itself while powering back up :shock:

YeeeHaaaa ~ Side Offshore winds........ Gotta love'm :P

Ditto down in Ft. Lauderdale. After starting a presentation late over in Pt. Everglades, they SHUT DOWN I-595 (Pres. Bush in town?) and hassling through boat show traffic and parking, I was able to hit the beach. JUST in time for an offshore shift. I went out anyway for a while, about 15 min. too, was able to make it in despite failing winds and called it a day. N to NNW down here means threading through a bunch of mountainous condos. Yuck! Well there is always next time ...
