Nice, pra! Good to hear you had a great day on the water
I went to Agate about 10:30 or so in the a.m. Was expecting a big crowd but only a couple of folks were there when I showed up. Swung back by around 2:00pm and the place was packed. Wondered if they knew something I didn't about the conditions, or if they were just waiting for the temps to warm up. Hmmm....
I caught a couple of really good rides, one of them one of my best. I rode it out long and was able to make turns angled against the wave. Probably basic stuff for you all, but for me it felt really great. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to really recapture the magic after that. Had a lot of trouble with the east wind blowing spindrift back at me pretty hard. Felt like I was getting sprayed directly in the face with a fire hose every time I tried to catch a wave. I have enough trouble with my pop-ups, I don't need any blow back pelting and stinging my face in the process.
But there are no bad days in the water and I was happy I got out. Spent Sunday kayaking with my wife, so got out and enjoyed a different kind of day on the water. Hope you all had a good weekend as well.
