Wed @ PaG
good riding at PaG yesterday.. powered nicely on my 16 waroo.. rode larger board during the session.. but prob could have been on my medium board for a large part of it. wind would drop down a bit but would crank up to what seemed like 15 or so.. plenty to have a damn good time for a few hours.
Nothing like the fine art of light wind riding. Last years long spring season really helped me dial in my skills in the lightest of winds. The stopper on the 2007 waroo bar is also a godsend. good times indeed.

Tammy, Katie, Eric, and I were at IRB and when I first got there I rode for 15 minutes. A storm rolled through and produced a very intense waterspout that lasted for 10 minutes and dissipated once it got close to shore. That was the first time I have witnessed a waterspout ever. I am glad that I had the smarts to come in when the storm was approaching.
