You must be kidding sucka!!!

I rode all day! Rode over in Tampa in the morning and then went to Backside Skyway and rode for a few more hours in the afternoon! There were 15 kites at East Beach, and 4-5 of us at the skyway backside. Had plenty of wind for busting some reasonable kite loops and respectable jumps. Lots of swimmers whooting and hollering... got some good cheers and whistles from the boats going through the channel (was jumping big off of their wakes). Jayson rode all the way over to East Beach to show off his new hoola-hoop and came back a few hours later talking of circus tricks. Wish I could have seen it. Overall it was a great day of riding.

Throw me another coin Scott!

-sunburned and happy

It turned out to be a killer day at EB. It kicked on about 2ish and was a solid 15 till sunset.

Yeah, it picked up alright. I think you called heads like 5 minutes before the coin actually landed and stopped spinning.

I wonder if the Skyway sensor is capable of showing South or if it is "pinned" in place and has to have E in it? The last 2 times it went to SSW, the sensor didn't show it, but stayed at SSE. (Bayflite noticed this first). I guess we will know for certain tomorrow.

Picnic Is was slow but ridable. I was able to try out the new Skwalker and I think thats the only thing that kept me riding. Work off a big lunch to say the least....

Yeah, that sensor is a real let down.
I guess it blew really nice out of the SW at PaG yesterday for several hours too, although looking at that sensor, you wouldn't know it, either
