Any N. Louisiana kiters out there? Looking for locations and fellow flyers.

Not sure of any in north L. There are several of us in the Lafayette area.

Can you give me some suggestions on locations? I recently went to Holly Beach and found it pretty good for buggying. Do you folks get together and fly? If so when and where? I could always drive down for the weekend.

Thanks

There are only two places in Louisiana that the beach is wide enough to buggy on. You mentioned holly beach, which is one and the other is Grand Isle. We have not been to GI for several years but we do go every once in a while when there is a good south wind over to holly beach. We can post here or send me a u2u with your e-mail and I will let you know next time we go.

I'm also in Louisiana as well... going to be buying my first foil from a fellow forum member -- I'm wondering places to actually just fly on land.. I'm south of Lafayette, however. Any idea, Susan?

I am not aware of any places south of Lafayette right now other that the two that I mentiioned.
