Hi All,
Just registered so thought I'd introduce myself....Am a 30y old bloke living in Brum. (for my sins). Very recently, having completed a two day kitesurfing course bought some kit (13m strike, Litewave 148) which I took out on the water for the first time last Sunday on Ynyslas beach. Suffice to say that most of the time was spent inhaling large amounts of water and getting lifted in the gusty southerly. Did however manage to get up a few times for short periods which was AWESOME FUN!! Plan to make it down to(Borth/Aberdovey) as regularly as possible before the cold sets in. Look forward to meeting some of you on the beach!

i've just bought myself an 11 and 15 strike, nice kites, i'm dead impressed with them

hope to see you there sometime, if you see a dark blue subaru estate, that's me, may well be there tomorrow.

what do you drive so I know what to look out for?

cheers

Hi 'winded',

Glad you had a good day at the weekend, and good to see you registered here... I didn't bother getting in the water myself on Sunday as the wind never quite filled in enough... Still, its all good practise, and theres no need to stop for winter... it doesn't REALLY get cold, its just in your head!!

Hi Tim,
I drive a blue honda civic (M reg.). Might have to get something bigger if I keep indulging in new toys!! May be down this weekend and certainly the weekend after. See you there !

James

Al,
You made the right decision not to go out. Not really enough wind for the experienced!
