I have a half day at work today, so I am heading to Montrose Beach to enjoy the open space at the back of the beach while the rest of the sad sacks are at work :)

Conditions haven't been great the past few times I've gone out. I'd love to meet some more power kiters out here. Guess I am the only one willing to deal with the shifty bull ish winds out here lately.

Dam I flew out on one of the beaches when I was visiting my family over there and it was shifting all over the place. Wasnt the same as my home winds in San Francisco at all lmao

Thursday winds at Montrose are going to be amazing right after lunch time for the rest of the day. 14mph+ only gusting to 20mph. Total sweet spot for the wind. I will hopefully get my buggy onto the sand that day. Even if I do not get the buggy out, I will be static with the 5.0 or the 8.0 if I feel ballsy enough.
