full tilt on-shore winds + older long board not able to gain much upwind ground + rutheless shorebreak = Bryan calling friend for pick up after only a couple hours on the water..

i could not get back out into the gulf when i got pushed to close to shore..

shore break kick my ass in more ways than i can describe..with full West wind i couldnt body drag out past it.. trying to rider through it I got knocked off my boad more times than i can count..

thought my old 160 board would be the trick that got me going.. but its only a great down winder.. not a good board for today as "down wind" equaled shore.

oh well. next year.

seeing 60 kites flying and launching at same time was pretty damn cool .....
