Blue Angels are out ripping it over the beach... Nothing like a Navy Jet doing about 250mph right over your head when your rippin waves... The noise is just insane. It shook my classroom today.

Yea....other people rippin...in stuff we will never have.

Oh yea...and they kill people and stuff:rolleyes:

Even if we are a just country and we are doing the right things world wide, I still look at the "air show" as a parade of weapons.


Those waves were sick though!!:headbang:

Update

That was an awsome experience for me , total trip took all day i got back at 10 pm - BEAT ! Waves were huge in my book had to be 7-8 ft swells in the lake but waves were a lil smaller at the beach imo . , the trip across the breakwater was like being in a huge maytag ! waves were comming from everywhere ! Once at the beach they were pretty cool ,my ol-blaster /66e ran like a champ not even a hic-uP. Mat tore up the surf on the blaster like he was born on one ''said he never rode one before ''haha ! anyways,MAT ,TJ ,AND CHRIS ''and one other guy ? ''were doing some real riding like kids in a candy store , said that was the best surf in a couple years ,TJ took some footage mabe well see it later ! lots -o air !:arms: ps: had a good time riding and meeting up with you guys , thanks ! SATURDAY IS LOOKING LIKE SOME MORE OF THE SAME ! HAVE FUN ! MAT ; HERES YOUR RIDE ! http://www.pwctoday.com/showthread.php?t=67688

Sounds like Erie was great in Cleveland yesterday. I hit Erie in Monroe, MI about 5:00 yesterday. Great waves were coming in, but it looked like I was riding on a giant chocolate milk shake. The water litterally looked like rolling mud. Other than that the waves were big, and were breaking about 100 -200 feet off shore.

Frank, there was no beach. the water level had risen enough that I launched from nearly the grass where it meets the sand.

There were probably a dozen wind surfers, several surfers, kyakers a kite boarder and 1 lone SJ (me)

Nathan,

Do you launch at the State Park?? I live a little north of there about a block off the lake. They were kicking up really nice last night. Unfortunately, I could not get out. I'm hoping this weekend!!!:Banane01:

dj : i rode with ndh5 out of sterling park i personally dont think it was any shallower than edgewater! the launch makes you travel about a 1/4 mile in a no wake zone befoer you get to open water but with a stand=up you can beach launch with a cart easily ,right there ! good waves on the north corner of the beach . the blaster will be waiting on ya next time i get up there ! cant make saturday i blew my change on thurs and need to recoup ! need to buy more yamaha keys too lol !

Mike,
I either launch from the docks at Sterling State Park or use a beach cart and put in directly from the beach at the park. I didn't make it down to Erie at all over the weekend, I had a cousins wedding to attend in Grand Rapids and other family obligations.

Blaster800 and I were down there the last weekend in August apparently just as the waves were beginning to kick up from Ernesto. Had I known you were that close I would have sent you a note to meet us out there.
