Wildwood Beach report


Sandy :smilegrin:



Looks outstanding at the southern end even with sand covering a section of the upper pipe close to the pier. This should be a safer transition around the tight bottle neck that was there in the spring. North Beach was non-existent at high tide but will check at low tide.

Shalimar report:
:thumbup: outstanding as always and very good to see Maria again.

Glad to hear the south beach is looking good. Some concerns about north beach though... I would rather ride south beach, but if winds turn that direction, it would be nice to have that location open as well...

Currently scheduled to come up Thursday night, but plans may change depending on wind reports...

Umm OK :lol: I didn't realize that my videos had that affect on people but that's cool. Beach report today is low wind and time to do laundry. For the rest of the week looks awesome with Saturday looking to be the stellar day. For those not comfortable with the high winds please bring a smaller kite, you'll do fine.

Huge day today with the wind coming a little bit too much from the east but forecasted for SE. About 4 o'clock the SE switch was found and lit up. FULL BEACH PASSES north to south. Winds blowing about 15 had my 18m Phantom cooking. At one point I had a truck traveling down the beach that I had to blow by like he was sitting still (hope I got that on camera) By sunset it was sad to come in but I couldn't barely pull in the depower bar. Gonna sleep good tonight!

Good to know. The wind forecasts I have been seeing all week are favoring south beach almost entirely (WNW and NW winds Friday - Sunday).

For later in the fall season, this will be good information to have if winds do turn around. Thanks for the update dude. See ya soon!
