Day 31 0f the 2015 season: Excellent Birthday Gifts of SUPing, Kiteboarding and WIndsurfing in near Epic sound side conditions

Calm wind/water this morning made for SUPing, got an hour at a good 3 mile an hour pace. As soon as I got in from SUPing the wind switch turned on. Rigged the kite and from 1:00-4:00 kited until it was to windy for the 11M kite. Decided to rig the 5.0 with the 100 liter board and ripped it up on that from 4:30-6:00. Eventually the wind ramped up and told me it's Miller time in the hot tube.
