Thank you!
I know SOBB is not over yet, but it is for me 
In spite of it being short and weather was not the best for me and Pasha, we still have had a blast!
We ve met so many great people! Special thank you to Eli, Steve, SunsetJim, Morey, John, Gabe and others for lending me their kites and helping with
my buggy :singing:
It was our first trip to Oregon and SOBB. We want to come back next year, but for longer.
Cheers!

YES,
A premature THANK YOU to all at SOBB. It was worth it for the great winds Sat. afternoon alone.
Fantastic bunch of people, as always.
I can say I jumped higher than ever before so had a personal best. To have the space to connect moves was a luxury I already miss!

The first FedEx I went to refused to accept it because it was "too heavey" for home delivery. The second one charged $109 and I sent it to work
instead of home. I thought that was pretty good. The airline checkin went well and they did not ding me for oversized. Both those bags weighed in
over 49lbs. The limit is 50.

I too had a great time with winds all over the board. The evening meals at buggy camp were yummy, from pulled pork to salmon and oysters etc. The
buggy camp fire was a center of spirits and libation on a safety scale. Once again kite gear was given away to SOBB participants on the last Saturday
by a drawing. Beaches were the best with hard pack plus. Most of us got long runs in and if not the dune work made a hit.
Looking forward to next year....................
