newbie vs earl
Fri, 09/03/2010 - 13:42
So I've taken the lessons, purchased the gear, now I'm looking to hit the water. Is this weekend likely not the best weekend for a newbie because of the weather? I only have a 12m so I'm not sure if the gusts might be to much for it (even if I just went out and practiced some body dragging)... Is there a good spot to hit tonight or at all this weekend? Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Waquoit Bay, as long as it is not too strong and gusty. The wind will be westerly all weekend and diminishing, so just wait for the sweet spot, and/or buy a 9 meter.

Wait for late Saturday or Sunday (both look more moderate).
Thanks all for the help! Wasn't able to get to a beach with sideshore wind but hope to find something this week after work!
