The dates were all screwed up on your posts so I didn't say anything but I was at Keegs today, got it decent with a 16m. Actually I was super lit at times, fog was fun, water was flat especially between the gettys. Usually I post when I kite but today was kinda unforecasted (not a word) and everytime I do I get jinx and wind dies. :D


Polo
I could be wrong, but not usually

Getty is a jetty.

Getty - as in Gettysburg address. This is where a massive pile of Abe Lincoln's epic beard gets stuck in your kite lines.
