Perfectly calm yesterday morning in the South Bay. Launched my whitewater kayak at Palo Alto and headed east. Zero wind, temperature about 80 deg and a tide of 9 feet. The Bay was like a mirror with a ... |

For those using the phone system Wendy, note that the new sensor is "Tr ... |

I'll try and be there. About 5 years ago, when Cargill sold most of the south bay ponds, I went to the initial meetings in Alviso about how to restore the area. I mentioned windsurfing/kiting, but rec ... |

Someone stole my JP 100 freeride board off my car last night. It was parked in my driveway, just off the street in eastern Cupertino. Such a bummer - I had spent some time last year repairing a crack ... |

Pretty nice in the channel at 3rd. Way overpowered on 4.5/88 - it averaged 35mph or more for long stretches. Good 7 ft to 0 ebb, but the swell wasn't as big or clean as Tuesday. Still head high or so ... |
