Change of gears here.
St. Pete has it absolutely made in terms of riding spots and wind directions covered. Only a few places to ride in S.A., unless you are really into strong currents. And when I goes west, well... it's doable in a couple spots, but.....
Light wind riding here is a dream compared to over there as well.

In S.A. it can be blowing (and does often) solid 13 to 15 and you won't have much fun (if not doing a downwinder). Why?
The current combined with waves steal some of the wind AND you are drifting down the beach. It basically becomes 11 with a steady current ripping you downwind :?

Oh well, the wave riding come fall/winter is going to be insane 8)
The downwinders there do rock, but at 6 after work, not enuff time to do one :evil:

Couch central. Always available. Sounds like I have visitors for the next three weekends already
Riding waves is something I have always wanted to do.
Looking forward to it. On Friday a guy was out on a surf board and a 12
WAZOO tearing it up.. he looked real good. I was just jumping the waves, he
was really riding them. I'd like to get better at that
