Spent first 2 hours getting suckered out in gusts on 89L board, practiced lots of sailing knee deep and body drags back. Ended up very long walk of shame from below the concrete outlet. Great when powered in the straps though! Switched to big board, at least it slogs, would have been perfect with 7.5, but OK on 5.8. First for spending much time in waves - did a couple of drops off the break and small turns on mushy white stuff, even that was fun! Tried to get out past bar underpowered a few times, made it over white, tried to pump over shoulder of first of a big set, didn't quite make it and got mildly worked. Glad they were only waist high (shoulder standing on bottom). Sure feel it this morning! When powered the bar was much more fun, I can see why people get addicted to waves! :lol: Only made one or two dry jibes, none planing, almost one on the Seatrend -wind died just after the flip, got sheeted in but flopped to windward.
