Man I can do that stuff in my coffee but not in my cereal.

It's so cold here I keep looking at the hills thinking I'm going to see snow up there (2500 ft.) I got out of my truck and exhaled and I could see my breath, which is wierd for a rainy day.

It says 10M, but it's really a 9.

so, who was at OB today? it was unbelievable. I'm going to have to ride there more often. I met a bunch of people, but I have no idea if they read this forum. ikitesurf lost the OB sensor, so I have no idea what the wind was, but it was sunny, warm (relatively), and great wind (12m). normally i'd hesitate to talk up a place, but the beach is so huge we could use a few more folks out there.

oh, and i'm loving the dishwashing gloves. I wear some bright blue nitrile disposable gloves from mcmaster-carr. My hands were nice and toasty the whole time. plus, you can't really go wrong with blue hands.

I can only see Mt. D from my house when it's NOT cloudy, so there's no way I'd know...

I have a question about the gloves: How do you keep them from filling up with water when you get tossed in the drink? Rubber bands?


There's an ocean beach webcam with two different sites, but it seems like alot of the time they are so covered with salt-spray you can't tell if it's whitecapping or not.

Alameda was sweet today. Charlie and I had the same kite. Charlie, I heard you yell something at me but I couldn't hear.

I saw some Yuri Kiteloops. Looked sweet. Yuri what size kite were you on? That thing looped so fast!
