Igetwind is showing a great day on Saturday. Do any other forecasts support that information?

I'm not a fan of SW + high tide. This rules out White Rock.

Anyway, got other commitments later that day so good excuse to skip it.

iGetWind has 8 different forecast models ... what more do you want?

9, 10, 11, 12?

I never understood which model was applicable.
Nonetheless, I wanted to know if other wind sights supported the same information. I don’t have any paid websites.
Not trying to be annoying.

igetwind looks promising.
Hope for a session at Tsawwassen ferry terminal on Saturday and 3d Ave on Sunday. Monday looks good too but ... have to work.

Good wind but unfortunately lots of weeds at FF. I was crushing every 500m, until I got upwind of mile marker. Wind was stronger higher upwind steady 20-25kn, slightly overpowered.
Hopefully will be better at 3d tomorrow
