haha, YES it is, Phil.
Maybe not as bad as the past few days, but the thermometer outside my house is showing 82 already (@ 9:37AM)!!!

Word...its wayy too hot. I'm thinkin the best plan would be to bunk up with some AC, HBO and a six pack and save the gas money for better days ahead...next week is looking promising...
Jones was damn good, although I'm kind of surprised it didn't go earlier/harder. By the looks of the sensor it looks like we got there right on time Adam...
Oh, and be friendly to those dredge operations guys out at Jones. One of them took the time to grab my board way downriver after the wind dropped out and I wasn't able to swim back to it. He'll be stoked when he finds his case of Widmere. In the meantime i gotta start building the good karma cuz that was one BIG withdrawal...

thanks for clearing that up ikitesurf  sounds kinda like they dont know what will happen

Yes indeed, Steveensonberg was killer!!
The Safety Patrol (Josh) towed in Grom (the original from the Big Island) after he swamped his kite.
Tonski captured the action...

Ya Stevenson was a whoot. BettyB and I got the mid river jetski-and-kite switcharoo down... worked great for getting her out there.
Josh was throwing some seriously sick kiteloops. Buncha guys going big... including Dano throwing these sweet tweaked grabs. Stevenson crew... 
I even saw jahmbi out there! Man he's adorable... his dog I mean.
