When the wind comes sw or w as opposed to nw, Chrissy and the Yacht Club
get large wind holes. This makes for challenging conditions as you
would like to have a short board to handle the outside conditions,
but it's a bitch to get out and then back in. As I mentioned in
my previous post, the beach near the old coast guard station gets
wind in these conditions, but never seems to attract the Chrissy
crowd, who persist in slogging/swimming in and out.
