what a let down!

well it looks like the wind tricked me into thinking the sea front was the best place to go today... packed up after 10 mins at the most. guess that says it all really!!

by the time i'd packed up and got everything back to the car i couldnt be arsed to get it all out again over in the estuary!

sounds as though the 5 (?) of you that were out on the estuary had a good time, maybe i should of gone over instead of being too lazy! never mind.

winds looking ok ish for the weekend... still havent decided whether i'll come back up for two days only to have to go back for my medical on the tuesday... decisions decisions eh?!?

Yeah, I could have done with a smaller kite though!!!... Or deeper water so that I could have gone windsurfing!

I see the wind forecast for the weekend has improved as well.... No doubt the numbers will start dropping off over the next coupld of days!

hey there

Yup, sea front was quite gusty Al!! It was proper strong out at the back even though it didn't look like it and there wasn't even a bit of chop..I was like MAX MAX maxed out on my 17.5m!! I had 2 really high jumps thanks to some scary gusts..still fun getting wet!

Gotta say thank you for lending Simon your harness dude. He was stoked there was a spare. Cheers

So U reckon a possible F4-5 on da w/e hey? sounds sweet..

Glad you had a good one... The estuary was good enough for me... Today was good, loads more wind and a little bit of westerly in it too.

What happened to my harness anyway???
