Tigers was flattened 4.9 for me (185#) Weds. It started abruptly at 5,
and continued past 6:30 when I left. By the time I left, it had filled
in over at Oyster. Yes, the donut hole between Pt. San Bruno and Oyster
is still a problem though (you get underpowered, and hungry). A floatier
board and a snack before sailing may be in order if you launch from
Oyster.

Small wind-driven ramps on port and starboard. Primo was getting big
air, I was gettin' medium air. Tues. Sheldon was doing port forwards on
the outside. Haven't seen anyone do loops there before.
