Shirley's Bay - Sandy Superstorm

We got the scraps from Superstorm 'Sandy'.  It wasn't epic, but it was a rare north easterly and that meant Shirley's Bay.  With the day off work, I headed down in the morning and rigged up my 4.6.  A few kiters & sailors were out.  Sailors on site: Lisa, Marc, Marcus, Jonathan, Steve,....  Tried out my new patagonia wetsuit (with built in hood) - my first impressions:  super warm but hard to put on.  In fact I think I hurt my shoulder putting it on (if that's even possible).  I noticed right away when I fell in the water that I felt dry - not even close to being cold -soooo comfy!   Had a fun little session, but the waves weren't really lining up for fun stuff.  Took off around noon, but apparently the wind continued during the day.
