Another fantastic weekend with long sessions on Friday evening (9m kite).
Saturday am (9m), Saturday pm (12m), Sunday am and pm (12m). Knackered now
! Loads out today (Sunday) - I counted 14 kites on the water at one point
probably the sun brought everyone out. Friday and Sat were mostly overcast
but good kiting nonetheless with the regulars. Nailed nice high transitions
today off the biggish swell. Few wipeouts as well of course. Spent 2
hours Saturday evening replacing all the pulley bridle lines and sone of
the pulleys on my 9m Xbow 'cos one snapped on Saturday afternoon resulting
in a long walk along the beach. Luckily was the end of the afternoon
anyway so no real loss. Can't wait to get new kites that do not have 6
pulleys and 6 lines to replace every few months... I suppose at least my
splicing needle stays shiny.
Probably a 6 star weekend, if only for the endurance.
