I will probably stay over so I can go Sunday as well. I have not scheduled lessons...yet. I have done lots of body dragging in the past. I need to get on the board and just do it.

I'm busy Friday - but you said you may be there till Sunday? If so I may be able to make it depending on wind - looks good so far - except the winds are due west - need to be ssw to be able to buggy - but I may still be down - good just to static fly at the beach - winds will be howling actually now that I just looked - could be in the mid 20's. Soooo tempting - I'll call ya.

Cool - I hope to see you guys. The high temperature will be 67 so maybe there will be less people on the beach. I will probably have to get a full wetsuit. I only have a spring suit. I am no longer in SoCal. I will bring the buggy too but the beach is quite narrow. What time is the low tide?
