Day 66 of the 2016 season: Lexington fires up - the swell was wrapping around the jetty creating some of the best waves of the season


With the swell wrapping around the jetty creating some of the best organized, cleanest waves of the
season the only problem was the wind was gusty and punchy. Craig, Jerry and I had no complaints. We were still able to enjoy the waves on most runs. Drifting the kite and riding, turning, slashing downhill toeside to heelside felt like a snowboard session on the groomers.
Overall a near epic Lexington day.
