Re: beach day!
Picton was great - winds held up all day (1 - 6 at least).
Waves were small but quite fun considering all we have at the PUC is chop.
Brent was carving up a storm strapless so I decided to see how mine was in the waves. All I can say is that getting onto the board was a real challenge with the waves knocking your board all over.

Re: beach day!
Got a good long session on the surfboard and then it picked up enough to have me happy on my banana.
Super super super crowded! Just a guess, but I'd say more than 40 kites on the beach and probably over 20 on the water at any given moment.
Crazy. Also tired.
but good tired!
lets hope for a thermal today!
Edit: just checked the web cam at it just hit 17 knots!!
