I am heading up Michigan Side. Don't know where I will kite yet - Weko, St Joe, South Haven? Any body else heading that way? If you are give me a call.

May head up to Michigan as well. Just watching wind direction

[kitekid21]

I'm definitely going to be at Waukegan. Hopefully arriving by 10am, just as the SSW wind really starts to kick. See you there!

FYI - Wolf is cold already.
Yesterday needed full suit, booties, hood and ...debatable on the gloves. Wolf always chills faster than the big lake in the Fall. And that just makes it gustier than usual because it messes with air flow. Yesterday was one of the gustiest days ever until around 4:30 when winds settled in.

Well, if Wolf was gustier than Kegs today, it must have been brutal...
But Kegs was quite warm and it didn't feel like offshore-wind riding - maybe expect for that one time when a gust out of hell picked me up when I was about to landi a half-ass jump, lifted, turned, and smashed me again the water flat on my back. But other than a minor whiplash, no damage.

just another day at the zoo. looney 7m wind with sometimes "i could cover this lake horizontally wind."raileys turned into s bend turned into back tantrum to land blindish is what might happen if u pull som trigger. i can do the same front 50 different ways only at wolf. the "point break" off the island even allows a heel to toe snap simulation

[kitekid21]

Yeah, other than the sometimes outrageous gusts, Keegs was good on a 13m albeit a bit overpowered at times! I seem to struggle in landing my jumps there, but I think because of the waves. I wasn't wearing boots but I eventually regained sensation in my toes after a few minutes in the car. It was nice to meet some of you out there.

whooo doggie the wolfie was one helluva ride... me, scotty, and ben got what we asked for...good times.

Sorry I missed you guys....what fun! Wolfie was fun for me too, arrived at 4:30. I did hear about you guys though...because when I was pumping my 7, I was told twice that would be just fine (other guys were on 12m) cause that's what Scottie was riding....and it was just fine!!
