Yeah I thought about that again and you're right. I guess they're all kind of sketch options with the exception of ironically enough Crissy

If the whole bay is just totally lit up I bet 3rd will be do-able too though

I'm sure it'd be a cool experience to ride it on-shore like that

This is great stuff! I don't follow the tea leaves as closely as you guys but I'm itching for a session--I'm sure lots of others are, too, so let us know tomorrow what you think is looking good as early as you can!

Agreed, I'm keeping an eye on 3rd ave first, then if the sensors are saying it's not blowing hard enough, I'll go to crissy.
I'm concerned about the WHOLE bay area ending up at crissy that day, so between the currents, the traffic and the on-shore wind, I'm scared about having the good ingredients for a disaster. Add to that the forecasted 25/30mph wind... :?

How about a downwinder from A-town to 3rd? :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Hmm, Vincent, the graph I'm looking at says Crissy is going to be somewhat lighter than other spots on Wednesday. 14-15 starting at 3. It does look better Thursday, though, as does everywhere. But then again, maybe someone with local knowledge will know better about Crissy's chances for tomorrow. Are you out there, Jeff? :mrgreen:

ramsey: damn! that could be a fun one too! :twisted:
keith: I know, but if the wind blows off-shore, it doesn't matter if it's blowing strong or not, just seems like taking un-necessary risks.
but I agree about crissy: where are you jeff?! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

It will not be fun and it will be way too dangerous. Please no one show up at Crissy Tomorrow or Thurs. Thanks
