Going back to VAB to see if the cooler weather has cleared the masses from the beach. Low tide is at 1:00, winds are NE10-15 right now and forcast to shift to east 10-20! I'll get there around 11:00. I'll be flying the PKD!

Don't forget the video gear. Sounds like a great day for you.

It sucked....... Weather man overplayed the wind speed.....Forget the 15-25,where the heck was the 5-10. I got in 3.5 miles and a top speed of 16.9 mph. It was onshore ,but not enough of it.:o Hardly anyone out there too! Man ,it would have been so much better,if the wind showed up.

I feel your pain Donnie. I went to my local beach and got skunked yesterday. The forecast was only for about 9mph onshore, I figured I'd bust out the 10.8 Reactor and enjoy some nice relaxing rides. Got there and the wind was blowing 0 gusting to nothing, total let down. :no:
