10/28/07 East Beach

Finally some real wind and some Acid action. N & NNW wind 25-30mph. Acid, 5.4. Large swells great sailing. Keith, Carl, Uvee, Tom Britt, Wayne, Alexander, a few others. Generally sailed upwind of the jetties and got as far back up the beach as possible to ride through the soup. BIG airs, nice wave rides and a back loop attempt, which will be landed soon. 35+ gust slammed me into my 5.4 Icon which ripped. Plan to send it to ASH and pick it back up for Windsurfing weekend. Oh yeah, short sleeve full, but was a little warm. Cuts on feet bothering me a little.

10/27/07 Corolla

A.M. drive to Corolla with Francis and Adam, stopping for SEC's at Hardees along the way. Took longboard and big windsurfing gear. Forecast was for south wind and SE swell 5'. Checked it at the Duck pier and the waves looked epic. NO wind and peeling and lined up. Got to Corolla more of the same. Met Pat and we surfed at Buck Island with some other guys for a little over 2 hours. Bareback, I had a slow start but got some great rides after an hour or so. Went to Tomato Patch for lunch, I had a cheesteak sub. Thought about not going back out but went out anyway this time Section C. Long sleeve shorty. Even better waves and more rides. Saw Face there. Drove back to ORF and picked up LJM to grab dinner with the family at Tortilla West. Red Sox game on, restaurant too cold. Great, great day.

10/22/07 Virginia Beach 48th st.

Bab passed away yesterday AM. Wound up on 7.2 and 102. Really fun, thought about grandparents while sailing (a first). SE wind. Nice to be on the ocean. Had a hard time staying upwind. Sailed for 90 minutes or so. Wind died.

10/5/07-10/9/07 San Diego

Solid chest high waves in PB and Delmar. Great waves. Surfed with Plastic and Dan in Delmar on Saturday. Sunday same people at PB in waist high. Monday and Tuesday surfed alone at PB in waist high waves, AM only.

10/11/07 Seashore State Park

NW To W wind.15-30. Very gusty. Sailed 102 and 6.2. Me and Raav. Small but fun waves on the inside but we sailed out past the pound nets and into the mouth of the bay. Water was extremely jumbled. Tide ripping out, wind gusty, very bouncy uncomfortable ride. Fun though because of the skunk session at East Beach this AM. Some kiters out. Hope to sail in the AM. NOAA and IWindsurf disagree.
