Hi, here is a brief report. Saturday was awesome... The group, instruction and weather were great. Level was 5.25 (thank you Steph) and there was lots of play to be had on Middle-no lineups.
Our group, CDB's Annie, Steph, Pat, Jack, me and Frank, was lead by Nick T and Ryan W (Josh tagged along for a while and Megan made a guest appearance). As expected the results were there. It seems that everyone was very happy at the end of the day. No swims to report-only the glory. Highlights of the day included our own Annie punching Phil's twice (on her own vocation) and Pat and Frank running Garvin's (Was it Dragon's tongue?)
Thank you everyone that was a wonderfull day.

Meet the pros weekend was absolutely amazing!
As Robert mentioned, the level was 5.25 on saturday and 5 on sunday.
Ryan and Nick were great instructors and pushed every single one of us. Good job Annie for running the tongue of Phil's twice on the same day despite being terrified (while I chose to run sattler's instead )...
Pat, Frank and the pros ran dragon's tongue both days (even though not so successful on sunday  :-\...)
As for me, I finally convinced myself to run Phil's hole with Nick guiding me down...It resulted in both of us missing our lines and side surfing it instead for a while! I couldnt help but to have a smile on my face while surfing because Nick was screaming stupid things the whole time  ;D

Anyway, they might have another one later on this season, for those of you who hesitated this time around, just sign up for the second time, You won't regret it!

I am looking forward to paddling with you Rob, Annie, and Jack, thanks for a cool weekend :)
