Magicseaweed.com showing surf Saturday at Pawleys island, SC at 11 feet with wind at 49mph and 71mph gusts. Think I'll passmougl - 21-8-2011 at 08:49 PM
I just had the weather report on and I swear I heard a demonic laugh coming from the vicinity of the blades bag. If the storm comes anywhere near
here, I'm calling 40 my max with the 2.6....
Sorry blade, youre sidelined!shehatesmyhobbies - 22-8-2011 at 05:39 AM
She has become a Lil more intense. Maybe the winds will be here by Thursday.bigkahuna - 22-8-2011 at 10:22 AM
Looks like Irene is going to be a real nail biter here. Forecast right now is for a category three to make landfall in SC. I'm scheduled to be out
of town this week, hope to have a home when I return... :Pshehatesmyhobbies - 22-8-2011 at 10:39 AM
Yeah just heard that a Lil while ago on the radio. Instead of wishing you guys down there great winds, I wish you all the best in weathering the
storm. Be safe and get out of dodge if you can.mgatc - 22-8-2011 at 08:19 PM

Looking like we may need to pull the boats out for next weekend up here. Easier to relaunch that drag from the bottom!!snowspider - 23-8-2011 at 05:38 AM
Mougl try to be careful , in those winds that Reactor could pluck you like a daisey!tridude - 23-8-2011 at 03:43 PM
take care all in the SE, mid atlantic, and NE......................AJ dont be a hero and get off the banks..................you too BK! MGatc, Sunday
should be a better surf day.............................mgatc - 23-8-2011 at 06:59 PM
Thanks for the concern Don. I'm going down tomorrow (PI) for a Surf/Kite session with some friends. Will assess the conditions when I arrive.
Easterlies should keep me in the inlet, flatter water and incoming tidal current. Prolly go back on Sunday as well.mgatc - 24-8-2011 at 06:46 PM
Today was a complete bust. No wind. No waves. I got down too early and had to leave before things picked up. May go back down on Friday just to sit on
the beach and watch the blow.
How was Sullie today?WELDNGOD - 25-8-2011 at 11:02 AM
we're getting ready to get our asses handed to us.........This isn't good...BeamerBob - 25-8-2011 at 11:07 AM
I'm watching you East Coast guys. Live to kite another day.WELDNGOD - 25-8-2011 at 11:13 AM
I'm stayin
This house has been here since the late 30s,It's seen alot of storms. I cut all the trees down on the property years ago,so I'm safe. But the rest of
the hood has alot of old, big timber (at least the ones Isabel didn't knock over),Prolly lose quite a few of them.
The aftermath is gonna suck for sure, but I got lots of ammo for any would be looters....BeamerBob - 25-8-2011 at 11:15 AM

Be safe DonnieWELDNGOD - 25-8-2011 at 11:20 AM
Hey we got 3 mobile welding machines,and each one is also a power generator.So we have a high probability of being challenged for one of them at some
point. I know one will be at my house and I'm standin watch!WELDNGOD - 25-8-2011 at 11:23 AM
But we also got several chainsaws to go and help out the neighbors,So it's all balanced! martinipro - 25-8-2011 at 11:23 AM
Hi All!
Yesterday I had my first session with the XR+ and the frenzy!.
The most wind I've seen all summer inland in central jersey.
Had a great time!
I'm liking these pre-TS winds!
Was hoping for another session today but seems like the storm is getting here.
Tons of rain today, local field may be flooded through the next couple days.
Will have to wait until next week.pbc - 25-8-2011 at 05:09 PM
The forecast looks good for some inland kiting on Saturday. :-)

I don't think there's such a thing as a 50mph "breeze".pbc - 25-8-2011 at 07:02 PM
The good conditions--18mph, on shore, at low tide--were this morning while I was at work. :-(
I would't mind working so much if it left with me with enough disposable income to buy more kites.

i was flying today with my 3m hornet and it was alot of fun then the wind started to get out of hand so I called it quitsDrewculous - 26-8-2011 at 09:49 AM

Good luck with the storm. Stay safe and for God's sake, if anyone is thinking of flying a kite in that, THEN DON'T!...not without video. :Dtridude - 27-8-2011 at 06:59 AM
