I was on "my little friend", my 5.5m cabrina nomad (red/black) with my TT.
Can't get out tonight, but yesterday has me stoked to get back out to OB regularly, as long as the wind will allow.

I was on the 7 bandit.
it was good. Can't make it tonight either but I'll probably be there tomorrow night if I don't end up at Waddell.

Not shaping up for the Beach... seems like an "eddy" formed or some crap... good news is there is SW flow, should be fun elsewhere.

Waddell was the bomb! Never saw so many kites on week day at this spot. Big swell and big wind. KK((

Do you ride that turquois board strapless on the RRD kite? If so you did the BEST!

It was fucking GNARLY out there... OB demolished us! My dad was on a 6, I was on a 9, and Gerrit (L2K) was on a 10m. Big "Jacked" Surf... white water was punishing! One of my most difficult strapless sessions ever.

Good times!

Ahh NCK I know who you are

I was on the Religion MKI getting it handed to me upwind of you guys

I came down to chat with Gerrit at the end of the sesh. Obsession guy was still out after sunset when we were all packed up and heading out...

It was definitely powerful - I saw a guy get his board completely blown out from under him by like 6 inches of white water, totally unassuming lol

Good times...
