Retired living on Siesta Key, Florida in The city of Sarasota. Windsurfed for 25 years until 2008 when I went over to the Darkside Kitesurfing. Also, do Triathlons, Road Ride, Ski and generally stay in shape to kite. Most of our winds are front based out of the North or NW in winter best winds are 15 to 30 knots but this is not very week only when we get a big cold front. In the Spring we get fantastic seabreezes and kite in The Gulf of Mexico mostly flat water and washing machine waves...
