65--Willard 11M, 9M

When Doug and I arrivved at 9:00,it was 13M.
Doug got some 13M rides,
but by the time I streached, put brace on,
and narrowed the stance on my JL and Recoil,
It was 11M for me.
Good riding till 1:00.
Jumps don't hurt any more, yea...
As we were driving out, Jason arrived.
I took Doug home and went back.
Rigged 9M but it didn't hold air.
Then watched the storm pound into shore.

64-ULSSB 13M

Great couple of sessions.
Big day for me,,
first day I didn't limp out of the water since injury in early July.
Couple of rotations and mini jumps.
Amazing how the little things can mean so much again.

63--PV 13M

One of those great days at PV.
Two sessions.
Almost rigged my 11M.
Was wishing for smaller board.
Rode with stance a little closer on second session.
Felt excelent on the knee.
May even start jumps a little next time.
Clearing day after frontal passage,
when high pressure is builing, no clouds.
Almost rigged my 11M.
Was wishing for smaller board.
Still blowing when we left.

62--ULSSB 11M

I really like the setup at South Sandy
rode for quite a bit longer than last time.
I had to really concentrate on just manuvering around the waves,
cause any little chop hop would hurt.
Went out second, lighter session, on my surf board.
I need to readjust the position of the straps,
they are way to far back, for such a big board.
Time to start shopping for a kite surf board.
Board did a bounce out, and that was the end of the day
cause of the knee jarring.
Made decision I can kite a couple times a week,
but not going to gorge and take chance of more injury.
first time in many years I have not had a gorge trip.

61--DC 13M

Watched the up and down wind most of the day.
Lots of kiters out, but not worth more injury.
But after most left, at 4, It got really smooth.
I had to go for a ride.
Should have rigged 11M.
To hard to just 'mow the lawn"
Did a little soft jump, but to much pain,
I had to get off the water.
Brian took my kite, and I walked it off.
Then I went for another ride, another soft jump, another end of session.
Rode for a little over a half hour total. Nice to get wet.
Maybe the next time, I'll use smaller kite and my surfboard, so I can't jump.
