Yesterday was all time, nice long 6-7' swell sets, 70 degrees and blowin steady 22. Only a few other kiters out...best day of the year. I heard sauvies was packed?? why dont people drive a few more miles to get out of the gutter?

Sounds good. Might have to do that today since I rode at Sauvies (the gutter) yesterday for 6 hours with plenty of nasal enemas. Now my nose is an espresso machine of snot. MMMMM tasty. Very Happy

I would if I could but I can't... seriously its the worst possible day to take off from work for me, but I still considered it. Sauvies after hours will have to suffice.

Have fun at the coast guys. Thumb's Up

The best part about Ft. Stevens yesterday was a rare appearance by The D. That and the South Jizzle all the way to the Seaside Summerhouse sizzle.

That's 15 mizzles of shizzle!

Amery, Erv, Ken, Jeff, Tim and I got to the spit around 3 today and did the downwinder to the wreck. Good first run, went to do it again and it died so we went to Manzo for a sunset sesh and got skunked. That salt water cleared the Sauvie sewage outta me like sauerkraut. Swell was only about 4 feet but still a good time. Cool

Ahhh man wish I coulda got some of that sweet wave action, work sucks! Had to settle for a late/short sesh at Sauvies until the wind cut out and I had one of my biggest walks of shame ever!

The shame! The shame! Mad

No Shame Dax.....
Shame would have been no riding at all, besides you were making the skim work for all it was worth with the small kite you were using.

Well cheers Steve, guess I was just bummed I only got 45 minutes of kiting in.

Might be awhile before us PDX'ers see Sauvies again... looks like it's back to highway 84... bummer with $3 a gallon. Oh well its worth it. Very Happy
