Metro Beach was the spot today, with the forecasted southwestern winds to 25. It was solid for me from 10:15 - 12:00. Took a break at 12:00 and by the time I went back out the wind as forecasted started to clock to the west and lighten up.
Good crowd for a brutal weather-wise day. But this is what is to be expected this time of year.
5-8 kiters and 2 windsurfers. Including Keith, Craig, Chris, JAB and myself.
These TOW days are narrowing down. With the forecast for the middle of next week to be colder. Temperatures forecasted to mid to low 30s for the highs will probably form some ice on the water and that'll be it for the season. No worry the snow guns will fire up and soon the ski hills will be open. And hopefully the ice will form for some ice kiting.
Highlight of the day: several successful toeside to heelside ollies - been working on theses for weeksTOW: 1:45 from 10:15 - 12:00
Gear: 11M and 140 Mako
Water Conditions: from flat water in the bowl to some nice swell at the shoal
Weather: 41 degrees was the highest I saw on my van thermometer, low clouds, lite rain.
Wind: 12-25 MPH generally from the SW
Schooled: toeside to heelside ollies
