Anyone going to hit the water with me at WWB?
I'm planning on bringing my boards and riding the waves if the winds are right and its not to cold! I know its sacrilege at a buggy bash but
addictions are hard to break:roll:. I'm bringing my landboard and buggy too it's gonna be a full car...Can't wait!!

I will definitely watch you try that... winds would have to be off shore though kinda sketchy.

You know... i brought my boards last time, but winds were not exactly conducive to riding on the water. I'll bring them gain. If the conditions setup
right, maybe I'll give it a shot... No promises.

Currently my favorite water to land transition.

At around time index ~1:56.
The whole video is definitely watch worthy, though.
High praise from a landlubber.

One year, I went into a particularly deep one that actually submerged most of the buggy I was in at the time (and it was a BigFoot). I swear it didnt
look that deep when I approached it.
On the plus side, I will say that there are not that many "tidal pools" at wildwood. Or there wasnt much when I was there last. Conditions may have
changed but the only place we really see these kinds of things forming is on North Beach. While this isnt a bad area to ride, being on the southern
area is much more fun in my opinion.
One more week, and we'll be there... See ya soon.

Thursday seems like the wind is strong enough for kiteboarding (15mph), but the direction is offshore.
