Hey Ollie & Charlie,
What's the deal with the OB wind? The sensor was showing less than 10 all day long on Sunday, but people were kiting on 10Ms? Is the sensor low or what?

Check the graph for Saturday, which was the day we were out. The water was hectic for sure, almost all white water everywhere. At one point there were maybe seven riders out and most people stayed close inside in the flats. I went outside a bit a few times trying to get past the bigger breaks, but there wasn't really any relief to be found past them. Keep your head up and eyes open....

Okay, Saturday...that makes sense.
I won't be kiting OB any time soon, but I would like to try Stinson this fall. Can't make it this weekend, though it will probably be on there, too.
