Relentless NE

Its been blowing 25+ out of the NE-ENE since Friday. Unprecedented run for the first week of May.
Too busy in the shop for me to take advantage, although a small window did present itself sunday afternoon, but the wind was too onshore and had dropped below the required threshold imo to make it out in the onshore conditions. Ughh, But Monday was another story, just enough north in it to make easy enough power up on a relative beam reach and not have to pinch. I LOVE THIS SPOT. No problem getting out, despite the size resulting from  straight days of STRONG onshore wind. Big rollers on the shoals, and getting more comfortable with the venue, beginning to explore more and get more aggressive.

too much fun guys 

Indian River Inlet-Southside

Epic Southside

So yeah, I'm still here guys. Slammed busy with the shop lately. All good. Still stoked beyond measure. I have been scoring a lot of solo sessions at Assateague, both short board and sup + sail. But had been missing that lit-up, big surf intensity, until today. ;)

Beautiful sandbar on the outside

So I was headed to Assateague, again, when it dawned on me that I'd probably get more worked than anything down there cuz it was upper 20s and very onshore. So why not head north to Indian River, where the jetty would serve well to mitigate both shore pound and current.

Gybing around mountains of water is a blast

It had been about 20 years believe it or not, since I'd sailed this venue. Too friggin long. Pulled into the parking lot to find Stan I. un-rigging. He'd just come off the water, had a pretty good 4.2 sesh. He encouraged me to rig up, and would snap a few shots with the Nikon. My love language, Bingo! ;)

Jetty just over there on the left. such a luxury to have that

clean ramps and big air time

Approaching the reef with speed. About a half mile out. So stoked!

Smooth on the inside

 

So stoked!
