Pretty windy today.
Good to see the locals doing some good old fashioned boosting.

Nice one, without looking at the kite- on first reaction I thought it was a blurry helicopter.

Here's a clearer one but not as high.

It's Darren from the Scarbs shop, he certainly knows how to send it. Wasn't very easy to hold an edge out there either, choppy as hell.

Awesome today, out at Mettams from 3 til 5 - not a poley in sight

As they must have been too scared to come out and play today I officially claimed it as a kitesurfing spot

Haha one of the lads was texting us all at 6am asking where we were!
Given that it was squalling between 18-40knots and raining completely sideways (if not upwards?) I took the stay in bed for a few more hours option.

But raining upward means extra lift
