Oct 1 to Oct 6 will go down as some of the best coastal kitesurfing ever seen on the central coast. Strong longer period west and southwest swell combined with late afternoon due north winds with a significant offshore component to the wind angle made for reeling right hand perfection day after day. Air temps were crazy hot and water was well into the 60 degrees and no fog!

Great time to be hanging at the beach and living the coastal kitesurfing lifestyle. Here are a few GoPro shots from one of the days.

Sooo amazing for October! Think my yellow Rally may have made it into one of your shots, stoked I made it out for a few of those days.

To borrow a phase from Jack Black from Tenacious D, " It's a cream dream!"

FYI, I always hated the kid at school who scored an A+ on the exam and or report and let everyone know about it Laughing

Way to score and thanks for the update and pic's. Now go get those ears drilled (see if the doc will wear your GoPro during the procedure).

That was a REALLY fun stretch--some of the best conditions I've experienced.

I could have done without the couple of romantic sunset swims I had to make to the beach after the wind died very abruptly, though. It is Sharktober, after all...

Shocked
