thinking of quick jaunt to Backside after work. If I get out earlier I might hit EB.

Then again.. I am only 3 minutes away from Cypress from my office.

I will go!

Donna just called. Solid 20 to 25 and a tad higher. I guess most were on 8s and 9s. She was on the 11 (lmao).

I am ready to rock and can be there by 6.

At low tide it would be ok... high tide not so much since you could potentially get stuck down wind of the launch surrounded by trees.

goodtimes at EB.. got to ride the 12m monkeykite for about an hour.. really got to get a good feel for the kite.

its got MAJOR boost but is quite slow.. def take some getting used to if i were ever to go with one.. seriously tho, it ripped me off the water and is floaty as hell.

dropped that and rigged 14m waroo.. got to eek out quite a bit today in a few hours.. good times.

triple backroll to accidental kiteloop to blazing slam on my left side pretty much ended my day.. (still got about 15 min in after just to prove to myself i was OK.. and I was).. gonna hurt tomorrow ....


ow.

Left work early and ust got back from the 'Tow. SW at about 20 or so. Pretty nice out there. Full moon and clear skies after sunset.

After riding I got offered drinks, sex and a job.
Sounds real good until you realize all offers were from the same person (a dude)
He must have mistaken the Instinct for a bow and thought I was a BOWmosexual.
