Winds: N 11, Gust 16. 16m. Spleene Board. Soundside session. Water: murk out deep. Cold front. Used wetsuit for first time this season. Winds were quite odd. On land the wind did a 360 on me. Holy crap, a month without kiteboarding! This is supposed to be the best time of the year too! There were days with wind, but the surf was dangerous, or there were storms nearby.

Winds: SE: 11-14. 16m. Both boards. Big Sabine Gulfside session. Water: slight murk, some light seaweed came back. Waves: moderate chop. Head highs at second sand bar. Very gray day. Only had one really good run past the breakers. Navarre Beach is still purple flagged. I think it's the moon jellies.

Winds: SE: 13-16. 16m. Both boards. Big Sabine Gulfside session. Water: clear. Waves: some mixed waves, none over waist, very manageable. Had a great time in a new spot! Very tiring since you can't really rest on the beach with the kite traffic.

Winds: WSW 10-13. Enough to go downwind until a good gust near sunset. 16m. Spleene Board. Water: clear. Waves: butter, still deep cuts on second sand bar. First dip in the water is shocking, but temperature is fine after you get used to it. Can't seem to do a 360. Too hard to spin. Awesome jumps today though..

Winds: WSW 13-15. 16m. Spleene Board. Water: FINALLY NO SEAWEED! It's so nice to look down during a jump and see through the liquid as opposed to the failed Indian Spinach entree that has been the gulf. Waves: butter day with slight chop on second sand bar. Slight nip in the air when damp. Water is still warm, however.

Winds: NNW 13-17. 16m. Spleene Board. Water: clear and brisk. Soundside session. Went from Opal Beach Park to the end of the National Seashore, back, and again. Very awesome indeed!

Winds: S 11. 16m. Spleene Board. Water: still thick salad. Waves: some shoulder high. Fast current straight onshore. Although I had enough grunt to move, the current kept pushing me ashore. Very frustrating.
