It started off great. 4.2/8'2". Fully Powered off the beach I
!PUNCHED! thru a waisthigh throwing out shorebreak, sped out to meet an
outside wall at full speed and launched a mast high jump, landed planing
away. and away we go! yowza!

I was marvelling at the nice steady wind for 10 or 15 minutes, jamming
up the beach. started bogging down outside, so I turned around, wind
was better close to shore. found this pattern all the way up to the
surf zone.

found Brendan from Sacto up there, he walked up. B sailed a more
downwind, inside wave while I went for the long outside walled up stuff,
and I got a few too. I mean long like the point at San Carlos when it's
really reeling. Same angles too.
At long last I got an aerial off the lip and came down still on the
wave. Another time I just went over with the lip, board sideways, fin
free, and kept on surfing.

Butt the wind holes! just got worse anD worse. zero to 30, that's a workout.
maybe -10 to 30 figuring in the backwinded gusts...

So I quit a bit early, and even came in 1/4 mile up wind of the launch
cuz I was getting so jacked around. was a good excuse to hang around,
enjoy the sunset, take another walk down to get my board.

Next day I felt WORKED!

So who's going to OS X?
