I see someone is kiting off of Dallas, the brave sole.
Not that I would know much, but Elk lake looks fantastic right now. Steady North wind, with 200 meter off the north beach looking particularly strong. The waves there are about 1 – 2 feet high, steep pitch but very close frequency. Don’t know if this helps but it looked good.
Cheers

Yep thanks GP. The onsite reports are appreciated, just ignore the negative posts. On Friday when I drove by Elk it was sailable and I should have stopped instead of driving out west. I'm hoping to get a few longboard days in at Elk Lake this summer with my SUP.

Now That I’ve Given Up Hope, I Feel Much Better
I am proud to say I learned to windsurf on Elk Lake. Initially spent a lot of time caught in the lilly pads before the rowing club took over that end of the lake. Back in the late 70's early 80's it was the place. Lots of freestyle longboard sailing. Still the best warm water sailing spot in Victoria in the summer.

Life is all about balance, and a dose of healthy wind addiction
Spelling, now really Colin, how about grammar
If one's going to critique spelling, then one should get the difference between "your" and "you're."
Ah Dave - if we had stopped at Elk Lake we would have always wondered if it happened out West - damn we should have stopped, a few less holes in my board also, methinks.
It's now seriously windy (WNW) out here in Satellite Channel - so Pat Bay will be good, but a very low tide. Looks like it'll stay around, time to go play on ferry wakes!

We windsurf - life must be good!
