Arrived at 10, rigged the 11M and on the water by 10:30. A 2 hour non-stop fabulous session, boost practicing so much that my ribs are hurting. Huge air ollies off some of the larger chop and pure legal fun for the entire sesh. Finally by 12:30 I needed a break due to 30 plus gusty conditions.
At 2:00 the wind was steadier and from the south with numerous storms in the area. So the 9M was the call. Rigged it and got a good hour of steadier south winds with more boosting schooling. Came in before the wind died and derigged in time to stay dry from a rainstorm that hit.
The WS Original Metro Beach, (OMBs) crowd was there with a decent afternoon sesh.
A small crowd of kite boarders on this workday, but everyone left smiling. Keith was crazy boosting and enjoying every second of it. Devon and I were working on our boosts and Mark was on the foil board looking good.
