La Ventana Classic Update and Photos for 1/22/2010

Photo Paul Lang

Today, the wind in La Ventana was here, but it was the wrong direction, blowing offshore for the entire day. A few kiters made it onto the water, but conditions were far from good.

The One-Mile SUP course race was held this morning, and involved two laps around the buoys with a run on the beach between laps.

Neil Hutchinson kept the crowd entertained today with a series of beach games, including the Baja Hose Search and very popular Radio Monkey. Tonight was finished off with a beach dinner and Reggae party on the beach with a local Reggae band from La Paz.

The Crossing from Cerralvo Island is happening tomorrow! If you are going, be on the beach at 7:30 a.m.!
