Cool that they call the kite your 'shadow partner' when riding waves.
so true.

50 or 60 of those
and your back leg is shaking from riding toeside for 8 miles down the strip.
Love it.
Yesterday was lighter but the waves were SO good....especially the inside section near the firing range.
Fun size with huge intervals....sw swell - nw wind...so good.

Bet it was even better in Blowhard's backyard.

good but not as good as North coast

the south swell has a new friend west swell
so it was mixed -up
but still really good.

Hey Tommy,
Very true.
Too much working not enough riding.
I have been surfing a lot lately..... and went to the Gorge for 4 days.
I obviously have been missing it.

Next week looks good.
