RUSH 4/8

[Jon Manwaring]

The Pond served up another windy day. Arrived to 15-20 with higher gusts (max on my meter 28), Rigged the 13 M Fuel, then thought better, and rigged the 11 M. Rode nicely powered for about an hr, then put up the 13 as it was backing off, rode again for about an hour as it slowly continued backing off and got even more gusty. Ryan got an earlier session on his 17, and when we arrived he went out again on the 17 FULLY LIT, Nice BIG airs with lots of screaming, both on and off the water (inside joke). He came in and also put up a 13 for the 2nd session. Marty lasted the whole time on the 12 STD, big range on that kite. Doug, Jason (not retired) + friend, Sal arrived later to the up and down winds. Doug made it look sort of good on the 17 M and Glide, amazing lite wind board. I left about 2:00 don't know if it came back or not, anyone? All in all, a GOOD DAY, with good company.
