Day 33 of the 2017 season: Empire beach - Not your typical Empire beach session

Not your typical Empire Beach session. Another side shore south breeze 12-25 mph, squally condition type of day. At one time I counted 4 rain showers crossing the lake.
Managed to stay dry on the second hour of my session - that is no showers were landing ashore.
I had the entire beach to myself...just an ugly weather day but at least there was some decent riding to be found.
That's 4 Empire Beach sessions so far this year...that might be record territory.


TOB:   6:00 - 8:00 pm
Gear:    13M, TT for and hour and directional for an hour
Water Conditions:   Fairly flat
Weather:   Cloudy, rain squalls. lower 50s  
Wind:  side shore south winds 12-25 mph
Highlights: got a good workout on the directional board with the straps, it saved the day in the lighter wind conditions. Did a run halfway to Empire Bluff and worked the surf board carving it downwind in basically small choppy conditions.
