We have had the first wind in a while......with a **** load of rain and misery to boot. Anyone been out? Is it possible?

was going too,how ever i pussy`d out cause last time i went in the rain it took 3 days to dry my kite out in my unit.

^Weakest excuse ever. Hope your joking

edit: Hrm, looked at a few news articles, it is pretty rainy down there.

Question: If its really rainy and the wind is moderate-light, do kites get a bit misshapen and does that effect your rides?

I intended on going out today, but it didnt seem like anyone else was keen so i bailed. Clearing this weekend but the wind is dropping to nothing.

Stalker!!! stranger danger!!!

YES




one word....SOFT...

2 great days back to back
4 1/2 hr session and 3hr session
swell picked up nicely today

looks like some people could do with a teaspoon of cement.....
so they can HARDEN THE @#$% UP !!!!!!

DAMNIT, just got back from work, after a looong day at uni. I am aching for some kiting, yesterday was more uni exams too, so I couldnt even get out then.

Even so I don't think it mattered much yesterday anyway as it was gusting to almost 30 and I only have a 14m... I've been out in 30 with full-depower and it still manages to drag me around, sheeting in results in instant boosting, I also managed to launch it through the powerzone once at longy on a hefty day, my neck hurt for a few days after that lol...

It looks like its turning SW this w/e, where is a good spot for a SW near Sydney?

Im keen if others are. Not so fond of kiting on my own.

even better lets start from pyrmont/starcity we can go under the bridge..... sure to be a winner with the south westers...

police hmmmfff what ever... we,ll just launch over em A-team Style nothin can stop us man... were the new wave!!!!

I hope you get what we had early this week, 400mls of rain and 70-100km hr winds, and now that it's somewhere between Sydney and where-ever, we'll have 3 days of 15-30knots for our long weekend....

Anyone for a downwinder....Echostorm, Nick, Sunseeker....

Saturday arvo ....see ya out there
