Anyone going to head to the spit today? I haven't been kiting since a week ago sunday. I need a fix and the winds look decent enough. I just finished up work for the day and need some wind!!

Heading down around 3 with some new kites and boards to try out.

Only 2nd time out this year, so will still be looking like a super gaper on the water.

I seem to notice that quite a few people on this forum are "just finishing up work for the day" around 1pm. What is your secret? I think I need a career change.

Actually, I just am finishing up feeding the kids, changing some diapers and putting them to bed. My wife is giving me a hall-pass since she gets to go running while I do this.

Usually I don't get onto the water unless it is a dawn patrol at 8am or dusk patrol after 6pm.

Although, I do have to agree with you. Many of our customers have got their work hours dialed in much better than I do.

Note to those of you who see me on the water this year: a newborn boy, 4yr old girl and a growing business have taken their toll on both my physique and water skills. I think that I might be reaching OG status soon.

I don't have a set schedule and I kite when I can. I ended up working both saturday and sunday - and now I have off Tuesday and Wednesday. Maybe next week I'll have thursday and friday and work the weekend - its hard to say - week to week it changes. So I take advantage of the time I have.

By the way - today was good Thumb's Up up and down of course - but I was doing pretty good on a 9M and then a couple of hours later switched to a 11M and then decided to pack it all up cus the winds were starting to shut off.

lol, yea, that water was so shallow and Jake/Joby were killin it in there. I try something and go rolling across the ground like there wasn't 18 inches of water there in the first place.

Fun session though, first long session of the year.

There is no other way to ride! Though I was taking it easy.
