Air scottI had a most excellent session at Napeague on Saturday.   But there was another session we must tell you about, featuring the usual suspects plus waves, at Cupsogue.  If only I had been there too!  But I wasn't, so here is Peconic Jeff's report:

"Nearly everyone got stuck in the soft sand and had to let out air, but once there we found nukin' 4.2/4.7. Christian & I had first checked out Ponquogue, which looked muuuch better: cleaner, more organized waves, but the Cup offered zero shorebreak.

Air wolfScott got some major air on a few jumps, and Jon Sassone was throwing bottom turns and cutbacks in the thick of the breaking waves. Christian had a 'breakthrough day', popping up and over breaking whitewater with ease. First day sailing with gloves & booties!

Sailor roll call: Scott, Wolf, Bruce, Jan, myself (Jeff), Christian, Jon Ford, Anders,

An editor's note:  John "he only sails when conditions are perfect" Natalie is an excellent indicator of the day's quality.   If I could have only been in two sessions at once!
(From the top:  Scott and Bruce line them up.  Air Scott.  Air Wolf. Jonathan.  There's no picture of Jeff Schultz because this is Jeff Schultz photography…thanks Jeff!)
