Anyone for Jones beach on Saturday? It looks like the best bet. (my guess!)

Not sure, but it's definately not looking promising now @ 2.5NNE with gusts to 4... Crying or Very sad

Jones works off of temperature differences between portland and the coast, so if it goes it wont go until portland heats up. Wait till around 1, and if the sensor shows the wind is picking up, it'll keep picking up till sunset. usually peeks at around 25mph or higher

thanks for the info. Looks like I'm headed to Jones. Also isn't the actual wind speed on the water higher than what the sensor shows.

Hahaha...hell yes. I'll take up the kiter correspondent position at KATU in exchange for one of those fatty news vans and free gas. We could bust 360-420's off the roof all day! Twisted Evil

Shiit yeah school is done! Schooooooolls out for eva! Well, not really, almost though. I got out last week and have been (trying to) kill it on the water ever since. Got the new 7 and 12 switchblades and a custom 133 you need to try, i'm totally stoked on em. When they gonna let you guys out to play?

Oh and yeah, wind speed on the water is quite a bit higher than the sensor...whoever placed the thing didn't take into account that putting it in a grove of trees might interfere with the reading. A lot better than nothing though

Would love to, but have Mother's day obligations. Have the day off so planning on hitting sauvies or jones tomorrow though. I was skeptical, but Sauvies actually ended up being pretty good late yesterday. BTW cool avatar Kataku.
