The major upside of the recent lack of wind are the water temps. 13.9 C measured at Charleston right now. When I went down to SC Gold beach was getting it's first NW winds of the season and for those two days at the cape you literally could have gotten by with a shorty. After a few days of NW wind and upwelling... not so much.
Don't forget to bring a towel!

I was staying at the Beachcomber that day and got a few shots of them ripping it up.

he was slayin' it on his 10mPark, nice kite, good action....I think the other Naish pro I launched wasn't too impressed with me when I chucked his kite from the rocks and it powered up....but hey, he said "just throw it..." so I did I figured he could take itwinddoctor wrote:Don't worry Seakelp, you'll eventually be able to carry your windsurfing gear into the water at the Hatch all by yourself! Keep practicing!
Fun day. Marathon out there doing his thing too, arrived in the Naish Bus, good perks ;)
Tick tock on the birthing event Wdoc, good luck to you both.....get that video camera and the Gravol lined up Ur not missing much down here, Gorge has been pretty mediocre, current is nuts and lots of chop, barges take 30secs to 1min to impact once you see 'em, crazy
BTW: the Hook area has some construction and they have removed the gates. The "sweeper" comes through around 10pm and doesn't return, we have been hanging, BBQ-ing etc. in the Marina, get kicked out there, then Hook it. Relatively quiet
