Day 37 of the 2017 season: Finally Harsens Island, right place at the right time

Finally after a long drought of missed kiting/WS opportunities, skunkings and wrong places at the wrong time, I got to the right place at the right time. Harsens Island almost at its best, 15-30 mph west winds with a few short lived lulls, not enough lull to get me off the water.
One trip upwind to the slicks near the grassy area was fun and the rest of the time entertaining myself in front of the launch area.
Keith, Craig, Rick, Jeff and a few others, we all enjoyed a fantastic day on Harsens Island.

TOB:   2:30 - 6:00 non-stop session
Gear:  11M Z1 and TT
Water conditions:  Typical Harsens, some small swell to slash and nice ramps for some air chop hops.
Wind:  15-30 generally from the west
Weather: mostly sunny mid-60s, some rain squalls nearby
Highlights:  jumps, carving, practicing toeside to heel side 180s and exciting times after nearly 2 weeks of misses
