Re: Half Moon Bay weekend of 2/15
Great post. Without knowing HMB, you've got me excited to try it out.le noun wrote: If I had to pick an order of preference for where to bring a friend for his/her first time in the ocean (as long as (s)he is a independent rider, knows how to ride upwind all the time, self rescue, body drag to the board, etc...) then it would be:
1)HMB
2)Waddell
3)OB
But I'd also like to add that Dillon is a good place to first get exposed to waves, IMHO.

Haven't tried Dillon yet. It's on my list this spring though. :twisted:

So, HMB Poplar Beach was pretty epic-ish today.

What the? Was that from like 4 - 5p ish?
I'm dawn patrolling tomorrow if there is anything working. The forecast is sketch but I'll post up before I head out if anything looks do-able
Other than that, maybe Waddell afternoon? I think President's Day is going to be the real Kiter's Day Off of the 3-day Weekend

Looks like the coast may stand a chance this afternoon.
However, I'm tempted to head to the coast at Pt. Reyes. Chimney Rock (at the point) is blowing 26.
Anyone have any experience with the NW shore of Pt. Reyes Penninsula? About to bump this topic...
