Just got in from a 2 hour night kite ATB session. Tide was fairly low (1 foot), wind from the East South East (almost directly onshore) blowing
6-8ish mph. I was on my Blade III 10.5 meter just powered up enough to cruise. Maybe 8ish miles of riding total.
If you've not tried night ATB riding I recommend you give it a try. Around here the winds are very very very smooth at night for the most part.

I'm jealous...I just got back from my local park...tried to do a little night time flying myself. We're having some crazy Santa Ana wind's in the L.A.
area right now and it was just too crazy to go out on my lunch hour. Was hoping to get a little session in while the wife is putting the kids down,
but wind was jumping from 3 to 20 to 5 to 4 to 12....a little vodka redbull sounded better so here I am.
Glad someone was able to get some riding in...and the beach...nothing like it...like riding on butter!
...for light,,,was the moon enough or is the beach next to some streetlights?
