Rolling the dice at Sunset
Well gonna roll the dice and take a chance on sunset beach tomorrow. The weather doesn't look to be all the bad with a chance of drizzle in the
morning. However with winds predicted to be out of the west at 5-10 knots why the hell not.
Might even get some more up to date pics of my gear who knows.

{shaking dice}--------Daddy needs a new pair of shoes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hit 7's today. Got up to Sunset Beach just about noon, and just in time to see Jim sneak out from work to take a looksee!! No Jim, those are not ears
on my truck!
Was wanting to break out the Scorp or neo, but decided on the 5.0 beamer. Still a little gun shy after my last experience at sunset.
Heaven on Earth I tell ya. Flew till about 6:30. Made some mess of the beach, don't understand why the sheriff thought he needed to drive by me
every 30 minutes
The beamer flew great. Needed to give it just a few personal tweaks, but flew like a champ.
Still in the learning curve here. Down wind runs were crisp and at one point a little hair raising. Need to get use to that Libre front suspension
fork. Looked like a bull rider after hitting a couple of bumps in the beach.
Now just need to work on getting back to point of origin. No walks of shame, just me and the buggy having disagreements on directions.
Felt the ribs at the end of the day. Think they just wanted to let me know they were still there.
Oh, and my buggy has now been blessed by the mayor. He confiscated my buggy and kite and proceeded to show me how a buggy should be ridden.
Can't wait to get back.

So judging by the beamer that was up, you must drive....like a blue canyon or toyota, cant quite remember. Everyday when I get off work I roll out and
check the beach, so I drove up to see who it was at about 5 30 or so, didnt recognize you since you didnt have your screename flag flying:wink2: so I
bailed without sayin hi. Glad you had a good day, I almost came out but was really itchin to get on the water which there wasnt enough wind for. Next
time I will stop and say hey. looks good this afternoon!!!:wee:
