Default Sunday Morning... who's going?

Looks like 18 knots at the moment (real, SW sensor says 22 plus).

It filled in nicely yesterday right about 7:45. I would say solid 25 or so for about an hour. It will probably do the same this morning.

Then it tapered to 15 to 18 til about noon, which was still sweet.

Then as predicted by a few, at 5:45pm...... BAM baby...

I am thinking it will taper off faster today. We will see.

yep! solid 15 to 18 ... onshore winds and 5 to 6 foot seas... great day... in jupiter.

i tell ya.. we are SPOILDED to have our conditions and riding location..
folks here have limited options and tho i do like the occasional intense session in a turbulent gulf... or "survial" riding like today in Jupiter .. i love that in most all conditions we can pick or choose our environment to ride in.

i would not like to have these conditions as my only riding option.

No doubt, zero! Not only the conditions but what about different wind directions? We got ALL bases covered within 8 minutes of the Skyway on any wind direction.
This morning was NE now 5 minutes ago it started to seabreeze! I'll be there in 10 minutes.
