me too

That would be the 22kts on Sat, which will in reality be 22kts for a 10 min period then 12-15 for the remaining 90% of your sesh until you pack up then it will crank in and be as steady as.. er.. something very steady.. as you contemplate your cold wet navel.

Roll on summer!!

I kicked off the 4 day celebration with a 6:30am kite this morining...

Any feeling in your gonads yet?

No it was ****.

Exactly as GF said... 20kts for about 3 minutes total, and about 14-15 the rest of the time. Still woke me up a bit before work so successful on that count.

Try again this arvo...

yello core - Idiot your Famous

That'll teach you all for trying to hog the wind while we're at work !

Your enthusiasm is inspiring.
It brought back memories

I'll be there again tomorrow

PS If its west tomorrow try woodies the south facing or north facing beaches.

It's so disappointing watching the trees copping a hiding today, would so desperately love to be out in 30kt NW. Can't go after work either, social plans.

Tomorrow sunrise - here's hoping it doesn't die off at all between now and then.

It was gusty but hey, the sun was out, and it was kinda peaceful and empty at Trigg, beaut winter's day, waves were big but not too big.... and my car didn't get broken into.

I don't think I've ever moved my trim that much and I've got a huge depower throw on my DNA!!

STILL: GreenPat, GetFunky, et al, IT'S BETTER THAN WORK INNIT??!!! [}:)]



don't think the twin tip is cutting it any more for me....

Had a cheeky 06:30 session this morning before work. Was direct on, but you know what, it was windy and it was awesome

^^^^ Mate you did well to stay out for +4hrs. I came back about 4pm and stayed out for ~1hr and was buggered after that.

See you there Friday 10-10:30ish

Ahh winter kiting aint it fun.
After having a 5 hour session yesterday on a 9mtr I was a bit sore and tired today. I was in no hurry but eventually headed out at my local just before 4pm, I took a 5.5 Dos and a 9 Kima down and my surfboard. It was up around 30 knots so the 5.5 it was, well within minutes it was around 40k but it was sweet with the little 5.5 next minute it was back to 20k and I was losing ground so I came in and pumped up the 9 Kima.
First run out it was nicely powered but within a couple of minutes it was gusty as and back up over 30, I was way overpowered being on the 6'2" surfboard but couldn't be bothered coming in to go back to the 5.5.
I still had fun but will be happy to see a steady consistant sea breeze when they finally get here.
Check out the Ocean reef graph from about 3.30 to 5.30, I couldn't have picked a worse time to head out, it had been pretty consistant all day.

Workin Fri but free for weekend and beyond
Will give you a bell Veebs

I'm looking at the graph and its so scary, at 11:00am we will have 33 knots! and my smallest kite is my 9m "flying banana".
I'll be there but if it really hits above 30 it will be such a hard job to get out of disturbed waving area on a TT!

Maybe its better to hit the river as its about 5 knots less than the ocean!

Let me know whats the plan

And guess what?!
It was +30.
Do you remember when you were justifying your self to buy that 9m kite;
*think bubble*
"I can kite surf in every condition now"

Fail
