6/18 Wolf

[lamalo]

Anyone going tomorrow? The forecasts look pretty good. Will probably be there around noonish.

Be careful out there.... WGN morning forcast called for 40-50 mph gusts...dont end up in a tree or roof. However if you boost big enough you will end up in Lake Michigan...

[ironben]

im going soon to check out Wolf, if is too crazy may head to michigan.
But i think i stay cause i like crazy

[mrgrey]

saw you guys out there... started to get serious around three.... measured 15-35 you guys are some intense riders....

[Bryce FLK]

How was the wolf? Might do a half day at work and get a session in tomorrow afternoon...

[adseguy]

I can't imagine Wolf being fun on a day like this (shutters). The gusts have nearly broken my back before and it's just a straight rodeo the whole time. Hey, a bad time in the water is still a better time then in the office

[lamalo]

Only Ben and I kiting today. We had a great time. Gusty but constantly enough for my 8m. Ben was on 7m and didn't seem unhappy to say the least.. I'm definitely back there tomorrow.

[ironben]

Wolf really delivered. great time at list.
was gusty but not so bad, it was not surviving for sure. I was riding 7 m all day, there were moment of strong wind around 40+ kts. later around 4 got to 50 kts and back down to 40 kts. Wolf meter is off as allway.
Wolf got waves 2-3 ft. high but norht flats were smooth
as i was leaving around 7 Pm 2 more kiters showed up, one was on 9 and one on 8

Hey Ben it's Kevin yeah I was chatting with you as I was rigging up my 9m.

Rode from 6:30 to 8 with Ark (sp?), a little gusty of course but not as bad as I thought. I was not overpowered, in spite of what that Chi crib sensor was showing it was not near that strong at Wolf when I was out. If it's really blowing in the 30's I am overpowered on my 9 and that was not the case today. Not sure I have an explanation for that.

Hope to get back for after work sesh maybe tomorrow and Wednesday
