Hella-Windy

Another hella-windy day here on Maui. Don't believe the iWindsurf graphs. It was at least 10 mph higher than they were reporting. I got on the water at 11:00am to get on it before it went super nuts. I had rigged 5.0 because when I arrived it looked 5.5ish. By the time I hit the water, it had built to a solid mid 20s. Sailed 15 minutes and decided it was just stupid to stay on that. Came in and went straight to 4.0. Sailed that well powered up at Uppers where there was actually some small wave action, albeit kinda confused and weird - NW swelling combining with east wind swell I guess. After an hour or so the wind cranked in even more. I decided I had had enough. I think I could have been well powered on 3.5. Probably more of the same tomorrow before backing off some on Monday.
