I think it might blow SSW to SW today at a decent enough clip to ride (13 or so)

Default Hey Sean, it's Chesta

I don't have your number any more and I can't PM you because I don't have enough posts. PM me your number. Board looks really good. I'm in Australia right now and I'll be back in 2 weeks. I'll talk with you about when I get back, but don't wait up for me. Thanks.

Man I got frickin' roasted out there today. Really dehydrated too... too much sun.
Where did everyone ride? There were about 6 of us at TI.
I was hoping Steve-O could show up so I could demo something, but he was stuck at the shop.

Just curious what the wind was everywhere.
We had some weird current at the beach, making getting out tricky (moderate shore break for here too).
Once out though, it wasn't too bad. Thanks again Bryan, for letting me demo your O.R. Rise (and then keep riding it).

The causeway was okay. I saw a few kites out off caladesi, including what I think was Craig's Speed 2, but I can't be 100% sure of it. Just enough wind to get back to your starting point and do a little roll or jump here and there. Not too exciting, but just great to be back on the water after a few months.

yeah. It was about 12/13 knots most of the time at TI. It was really good for about a half hour, then another 20 minutes there, but most of the time less than 15. I mainly did sightseeing runs on my surfboard. I had a great time though, especially considering what a beautiful day it was and that I haven't ridden in forever.

Was it crowded (beach goer wise) out there? TI had a lot of people out sunbathing.
