SATURDAY. Jan 12th

[V]

In spite of the "Wrappin it up" and "Snowkite" topics, we got water weather here this week.

Might roll up to catch some air if I dont think a thermal will kill near shore winds tomorrow...anyone still paying attention? or have we all already converted the kites into indoor play-tents for the kids during the winter?

[V]

Wondering if the warm weather and cold water are killin' it... check the inverse wind/temperature graphs. Tomorrow AM dawn patrol might be the call. Wind is falling tomorrow afternoon. so might hang today and roll out early AM style. Makin' the 'toe proud...

[V]

looks like it is coming back, temps dropping, wing increasing!

V,

I'm in for the dawn patrol tomorrow.

Where you guys thinking?

[V]

Man looks like either keegs or going further north in mi. S winds then switching to the west and falling off. Today the wind never happened in sh. I may not go actually. I've seens there forecasts before. Gonna be early not sure how long it'll last...

[Pier]

Yeah, it doesn't look great and chances are to not get any even driving 2-3h.

I'll check before sunrise and make the call.

[V]

S haven dying already 18-21 now. Not enough for my 12m

But...system shifted north and looks like things changed for the better and MC and even LakeStreet should work today with west winds being the call. Gonna check it a bit later and maybe head to LS/MC later today late am early afternoon

[Pier]

SH looks pretty good now, not sure that when it will switch W it's going to be enough.

Damn...

[V]

Looks light still. I hope you get some pier. I am gonna hold tight here and keep watching for the W at Lake St later but you are prob right. Today looks like a tease for the 200 crew...

[WaWaZat]

Anyone get any Sat?

[Pier]

SH was light but still rideable when I got there, I rode for 1h on my 10.5m well powered and then it became too light for me.

The locals were riding since 9am on 11-12m kites and we all left around 1pm.

It felt good being in the water, I wish I would have left earlier in the am.

Looking forward to the next session, I hope that we will kite all winter like last year!

Cheers

Sounds sweet Pier. Let me know next time and I'll tag along. I need a few warm up session before I leave for the Carribean anyway
