Well that was a nice way to finish of the year. I new this place had it in it, just had to wait and for the right tide, wind, and Gust!. All in all it was a pretty up and down day a little bit frustrating, but really good when the wind was in, so it just kept sucking me in to stay. It was a little NW today slowly swinging WNW. I was working this one bank, and when you timed it well it was good!. Did a 38 then a 39, and thought it was time to grab the Missile, did about a dozen runs but the wind was not playing the game and swinging around fast making the end of the run really broad, to broad. hung in there and waited for a stonking gust took off and nailed it!!! should have hung round for more runs but the goal was achieved. The first to crack the big 40 knots in the bay, Plenty more to come !!!
