Does anyone live near or going to be at Hood River this weekend? I am going down to Portland and looking to head over there to check out what all the
fuss is about.

You should come to Sunset Beach this weekend. SOBB starts on Saturday.

Yeah, heads towards the coat The gorge is also very nice. It's primarily geard
to kitesurfing and there are a few windsurfers left, and some SUP. So don't expect a place to fly on land.
If you are going to spend the time to go to the gorge then by all means schedule a lesson. I've taken a few from different places there are would be
happy to reccomend a school/instructor.
The goege is famous for wind. But the conditions are not easy. there's usually a good ammount of swll and chop. But if you learn to fly here you
can fly pretty much anywhere else.

I will be hitting Sunset Sunday, getting there around noon. Had too much fun last time to not go. The weather for the Hood River is scary this
weekend (for a new guy at least), 15 - 20 with 30 mph gusts, I wouldn't try that with a 6m without a seasoned instructor, which unfortunately I can't
afford.
I did hit Sauvie Island this morning and will again tomorrow morning and monday if I can too. Such smooth wind going straight along the shore, got a
bunch of good body drags in, wasn't enough for a board though.
Can't wait for sunset, Look out for Monty's windsock as usual right?

Can't miss it man- look north of the Sunset draw and you will see 20+ kites in the air. See you there.

I just missed you Josh. It was sunny at Sunset today, Sunday, but 3 - 5....
Just let me know when your going out Stetson. If it's during the week I'll have my son but he loves hanging out and watching the kites, at least for
a couple hours, lol.
