First day of 2 week vacation at OOB. Mid to high teens freekin' lit on my 17. Hit Pine Point at low tide. Riding in flat water in and on the sand bar! Lots of fun listening to people clap and go OOOOOOOOOH! Only ended up grounded on the sand bar once. Keeping it short hoping to make 13 more entries.

Day four brought very light

Day four brought very light wind 6-8mph but chomping at the bit I went out for about an hour the wind looked to be a little more off shore so was able tostay up wind with the added power, but still kind of lame. But I remember a time when today would have been epic! When we get a good day will post some pics, I mean Lisa will

Simple posts are good. It's

Simple posts are good. It's the endless session reports (like I always have the urge to do) that get boring. I'm glad you're getting some action.
