Berkeley is looking like smooth steady 12m wind, white caps and nice rollers. There is a beach as well. I would get on it but my bosses can see the water from their windows so no go for me. :shock:

Sounds like it was better than SI was today. Big kites a necessity, skimboards too even better.
A steady progression of kites being walked back to the launch from the Playpen.
NWS is already downplaying the strengthening of the HP ridge for the rest of the week. Maybe some clearing winds for Sun/Mon...

You know what? Berkeley is only slightly better than no kiting at all. I'll be honest, no matter how many times I try, it sucks there. I know you local guys love it but to drive more than 15 minutes for those conditions is wacky. I'm spoiled I guess since I usually get to ride Crissy or the Coast in the Spring and the Delta in the Summer. It's sad that for me with this demanding new job it really is the only option unless I want to fight traffic going to the City and back.
I cannot wait for the thermal stuff to hit-- I've been nothing but disappointed of late. Call me a whiner but the wind in Berkeley is marginal at best. Sorry to my friends there it's just my humble opinion. The good news? It's never going to be a crowded launch!
