I can't make the DW today. If you can put your trolley fare in a zip lock or bring coins. The driver wasn't too happy with wet sandy bills last time. Socks are the way to go for foot wear. Do like Toby and stash them in your wet suit while riding to impress the ladies.

I just started looking for a job yesterday.

Listen.. plans changed a tad. A group of people is meeting at IRB (26th Ave) to do a DW. It's at about 6 guys right now.

Al-kite-Ah is going that way, just got off the phone with him.
Winds still are light, but blowing 26 now in the PanHandle and 17 in Brooksville. Might happen today.. might not.

Anyway, IRB looks like new place to start.

Looks like we'll have at least a little wind this weekend in the mornings.

Ok, IRB it is.

Did it happen? I hit 23rd for some lunch at the thai place around 1:30 and there wasn't shit for wind. I had not checked on this forum until just now but I had all my gear, 6 quarters and was ready to go, but there was no wind!

I came home, check Ikitesurf and it showed 8 the around 3 12 then around 4 about 16, now its 5:15 and its showing 30. I hope you guys got some!

Several of us were hanging out "wasting" time (I was enjoying just hanging) and wondering if it was going to blow... then
it went friggin' ballistic is what happened. I didn't feel good enough to do the DW, unfortunately, but rode for about an hour up at IRB.
About 10 riders did the DW (several on 12m kites, a few on 15m ....OUCH.... lol)

It basically filled in and then went straight to nukesville. I was on a 9m kite, litt outta my mind.
I came in and handed it off to Danny for awhile and watched him ride it.
I am certain it was solid 30. The CLW sensor says it was solid 30 to 35.
