Esch Beach again - it's habit forming when the wind is right.
I tried to launch the 11M at Empire Beach but it just didn't work out. Not enough beach area making it a sketchy launch. Discovered a tear in my canopy at launch so I immediately landed it "hard" and blew out a canopy section. So derigged and decided to head to Esch beach and use my 9M.
Turned out to be the right decision the 9M worked just fine. Lots of beach launch area to safely launch.
Enjoyed a couple of hours playing in the bigger post frontal winds and swells.
TOW: 430 - 700
Gear: 9m 140 Mako
Water Conditions: 2-4 foot swells
Weather: Suns out mid-70s after an all day rain.
Wind: 15-30 WSW post frontal wind
Highlights: A desolate launch no-one around
