Day 13 for the 2013 season -Metro Beach 5-31-2013 Friday
Squally winds before the storm just lucky enough to be there at the right time for perfect 5.5 riding conditions.
Warm winds, water and air. Windy conditions due to storm heading toward MB.
Rigged the 5.5 on the 101 liter board - fairly steady to gradually building conditions.
Easy to get on a plane and stay planning due to the nice organized swell.
A storm hit the area around 2:15 with the effect of killing the wind.
It did come back later and lured people out but it soon dropped off to slogging conditions.
Sail sizes for the day were 8.0 down to 5.5.
Sail Time: 1.0 hour from 1:00 - 2:15
Gear: 5.5 with 100 liter board
