Upham... Possible DW today 11/11
Would like to ride today around 11am.
Will be at Upham in WNW or W. If winds are NW, would like to do a DW. Post on here if interested, we can figure out details. We have 2 guys going so far. |
Gonna hang at Upham. Winds still decent. Just started to rain, but will pass.
Too much W for a decent DW. |
Downwinder Questions.....
Please pardon this request for local knowledge from a newbie. Where is Upton? On NNW winds on the Gulf where do you normally start and finish down winders? Do you normally take cell phones or cash in case of a problem? I know some finish at the Undertow on St. Pete Beach. Would like to join in when you do the next one.
Regards, Tim |
Upham beach is about 2 miles north of Don Cesar.
When doing DWs, def. bring 2 bucks and booties (for trolley). DWs sort of suck on NNW (and definitely suck on N, at least if starting south of John's Pass). NW is the absolute best. :) Commonly start in the Indian Rocks area and stop at Undertow. Today was pretty good out at Upham, especially starting about 1.5 hours ago (12:30). Still blowing good out there now, but everyone packed up. Thanks for the loaner kite, Roy. |
Tomorrow(thurs) might be a decent day for a DW. Predictions are NW. I'm down for a DW.
|
No problem Scott. You should have took it out sooner.
|
Tx again Roy.
Cornel (and anyone else interested, like Paul), I would love to do a DW. Get out of class at 9:15, can be somewhere by 9:30 :) |
Scott---according to this late response, you must have been at the Derb playin' your last hands of NLHM...give me a holler in the am for the meeting place
|
Yeah. Had 4 big hands last night (all ins). Two times I had the nuts at one point post flop, other guy had second nut (one was broadway rainbow vs. K hi str.)
Other two got someone all in with AA or KK pre and held up. ;) Monday night was even better :) Reno was at 5/10 last night doing well. I am thinking North Beach. It's awfully North wind for a DW. I think that is what Paul is thinking too. I will call you and Paul at 9:30. |
Report from North Beach is that it is dead side shore, slightly gusty.
They are rigging 11's and 13's. 4 guys out there. |
