YEAH! Nice job brother! Who says skims are only for light wind?? :twisted: I try not to see that part of the day, but it looked really nice. Who can pass up a chance to be on a 6 with 15m lines? Man that thing must have turned like a mosquito. 8)

Whohoo! Love dawn patrols and strong wind! Last sunday I went up at 0500 and was already out at my favourite spot on my 5m and my 6'3" when the first rays of sunlight hit the water. Side onshore and clean chesthigh lefthanders. Magic! We usually have crap weather here when there is wind. We have a lot of wind this time of year so we also have a lot of crap weather. :D

The forecast says 20-34knots over the weekend (but ridiculous amount of rain on sunday) By the way, you guys measure mph, not knots, right?

What board is the quad fin?

Thats mph in the us (now I feel weaker)

The quad board is a 4' 8" custom Dereck Camacho - http://www.dcboardz.com/
bought it for traveling - crazy light, fun, fun, board - I wiped that morning and wind picked it up and it cracked me in the back of the head - felt like someone broke a chair over my skull - glad I had the helmut - no dings on the board!
