Alameda was perfect today....

Post by andyandmarlys » Mon Mar 13, 2006 11:24 pm

Unlike the last SE winds that were gusty and had wierd chop, the winds today in Alameda were more steady, and the waves were not wierd voodoo chop. Rolly on the outside, and smooth on the inside...

Charlie... I tried some speed runs today in the flat stuff... I was racing the cars on shoreline, and was wining... Why'd you head in so early? I thought maybe you were gonna bust out a speed needle...

Don and I stayed out until sunset... both of us were pretty happy with our session today... Gotta love living at the beach... and hot showers

Hello Andy, as I was driving down Westline Drive I see this brown and orange STD kite go zooming by at Mach 10! You were hauling ass!

Looked like fun out there, but unfortunately American Airlines lost my kite bag again (3rd time in the past 12 months). I always get it back but it takes them a few days to find it. No kiting for me until I get my stuff back :(

No worries Charlie boy, Thanks for caring!!
I was boiling in the shower for a few minutes before I felt something wrong with my heals, then I realized it was just the feeling coming back...
Good to see my homies,
Limm

You guys sound like you were having a good time....
I heard OB was happening big time yesterday also.

I heard from a customer that there was some action at the Tracks around 3pm today. Nice!
