Nice shots Tony, thanks for putting them up. That's somewhere on Miami Beach, near the cut?

Embedding photos into posts is pretty easy. It is detailed at:

Putting youtube video links into posts is even easier:

I was at 69th st.
Great spot, very few swimmers as the nearest exit is closed to public.

Hopefully we will get some again soon.
Tony

(Just wanted to try the pics tool) Fresh session in the NW:

I saw the sand bar and boat nearshore so guessed south. Nice conditions. Wow, where was the snow kiting photo taken? The surface looks real good. For years I took some kiting gear to the mountains but never used any of it. A big cornfield in Minnesota or an area like you show is more my speed for getting into it as opposed to the mountains I think.

This pic was taken in eastern Washington.
I have been looking for a place to snowkite for 2 years when I was in Seattle and finally found it randomly.
No one around, miles and miles of fresh snow and easy access.
If you don't mind driving, the NW offers great variety of land and water spots.

Default Independance Day Swell

Super stoked!

Mother Nature delivered an eairly "Fireworks" display here in Palm Beach. Woke up this am with a northly drive on the agenda, As I knew there was a swell from the Low off the Carolina's

But to my suprise, It was coming in at Lake Worth. Waist to Chest high w/crystal clear water and not a breath of wind.

Saved the long haul up coast and surfed outback for over 2 hours

Wow, I had no idea. Looked at the light but building wind prospects to the east and massive building thermal squalls converging from the west and figure, not today. I didn't see obvious swells from A1A, it is good you looked more closely.

Glad you grabbed some nice swells. Good way to start Independence Day.
