Let us know if you see any N or NW wind coming up. I'm sure that 3-4 of us from Adventure Sports will come over for a pre-run.

For the East Coasters that are not used to riding right foot forward off the wind... good luck. Last year I found that the 27 mile down wind race at Tampa (that I did 2 times) was far more difficult than the 60 Jupiter to Ft. Lauderdale race. I would strongly suggest getting some practice going low and right foot forward.

Additionally if you are regular and thinking of riding a directional board for the first time, don't do it. Unless you can ride toe-side switch you will be bumming. I found this out at Tampa also.

It is great to see more West Florida events coming along. See you there.

Kent
