As ol' Scotty G says....."it is never any good out of the East unless it is raining"....so hope for a bit of drizzle and a hammering SE wind!!!!!!

Rode for almost 2 hours up here in sheet and sloppy chest to head waves at north beach. Waves were not as bad as I have seen in the past on east winds. Rode till 11:30 and then should have went out again in the afternoon as the snow never came and the temps didn't dropped that much. Waves got big and burly by the afternoon.
Had zero icing on my bar but when I landed my kite most of the L.E. was covered in 1/4" of ice. It flew the same and I didn't notice. More riding to come
I'd rather be Rollerblading

Christmas came early in Sheboygan on Saturday. Good crew and strong SE-ESE wind produced great rding on 7-10 meter kites. Most riders spent the day just north of Sheboygan around the hook of North point rock. I have found this area tricky to get good in terms of the wind and waves lining up. Saturday it did come together with nice steep lines that were chest to just over head at times. Surf boards and twin tips blasting on smooth lips with clean wind in the kites. North beach and the elbow surf spot produced big sectiony waves that were well over head by the end of the day. Most guys rode from noon until dark. It was a really fun day

I was stoked to receive mother natures christmas gift to me on saturday in sheboygan. Like Andrew said we got to ride a new spot(at least for me) and a day that started off making the best of an ok situation (onshore wind in a monsoon)ended up paying out big time. I was greased on my 8 with perfect wind direction and rippen waves with a handful of good friends. merry xmas to us
10 mph?
