Sic Conditions Friday!

Full on liquid smoke today. So windy, that when i tried to close my eyes or squint during an especially powerfull gust, the wind would blow my eyelids OPEN. I kid you not. By the time I came off the water, wind was NW at 50, with gusts to 65. Absolutely SIC!

Incredibly, thats not rain. It was soo windy, nukin liquid smoke 

More details and pics later. Gottta run.

Yeah, it was super windy. This is Gulliome's kit

I was lit

I love this shot. The Wave Thruster, with the tri fin setup, has so much grip 

I was sooooo stoked. Its way funner that it looks 

So many jumps today 

Windiest Day I've sailed in over 12 mths.

Lots of spray
