Training for wildwood

Well had a chance to get out yesterday to try out a new location- a soccer field ON TOP of a hill- elevation provide some cleaner then normal wind and allowed me to kite about 4hrs- almost all was spent in the bug and i was able to log almost 30 miles in 100 yd dashes with a top speed of 19.7 mph- which i thought was pretty impressive since by the time i had any speed it was time to turn. Looking forward to riding with the gang.

No harness a good upper arm workout!

What kind of kite you fly that day?

Are you gonna ride buggy instead of board this time ...or both?:wee::wee:

this looks like a good training method for strong kiting arms
