Sheboygan was brutal this afternoon with winds being strong and gusty. Two of us out on 7 and 8 meter kites riding our smallest boards. Wind has slowed and is more SW with the swell looking outstanding.

Very happy to saw everybody in one piece after 50mph gust from hell,some with problems,but all made back to the beach..

Heard some guys went to Zion,dont know why in this direction and forecast,but hope all is good..

How was Wolf lake guys?

[smpl]

gnarly. i'm sick of riding 6m kites in this gusty shit.

it still blows me away that people rig up such big kites in strong wind with the false comfort that they have 100% depower.

hmmm let me think, if i couldn't hold onto a c-kite the same size then maybe this bow kite could seriously hurt me if something goes wrong.

just rig a smaller kite, twice as fun, 10x as safe.

Wolf Lake was brutal as well. very good 6-7M wind in the beginning but around 1 oclock it gusted to 45. You know it's strong when a 6M is overpowered in the gusts. Great day to be outside in early April though!

I had 8m up from the beginning and waited for the wind..Had a blast in some waves and once the direction shift it was time to get out.
