The surf got big today - and the wind was supposed to be blowing strong (spoiler alert - it wasn't blowing nearly as hard as the forecasts were saying it would).
The waves were close to closing out. And they were breaking even harder with the lower tide.
I used the same equipment that I have been using over the past few sessions.
But - the conditions were pretty extreme - gusty wind, pitching surf and lots of chop on the surface.
Kalani was headed in as I was paddling out.
I got out, parawinged around, got dropped by the wind a few times, made it back up on foil and decided to head in before the wind dropped.
At this point, Roland was paddling out.
I did catch a couple of waves, but you couldn't ride them for a long time - otherwise I would become one with a pitching lip.
Despite these challenges, this was a fun session!
Nice correlation between these two charts.
I made it back in without too much trouble. As did Kalani and eventually Roland.
This may be the last parawing session for a bit.
