What to do with no beach? 15-20 mph an no way to get a kite in the air. Inflatable is looking very good.

Paste use a google maps link to your launch/flying area so maybe we can give you ideas. Also tell us the wind direction and water depth.

Full size
I think I have my wife talked into buying and using a jet ski for safety and she could carry the kite and set it up on the water and assist with
landing etc. Otherwise it is going to be months before the beach is back.

On one spot I go kitesurfing, the water level is too high now, and no beach.
If you have shallow water you can walk with your Flysurfer far enough from the trees or other obstacles, you can launch the kite directly from the
water
I had some problem on the first attempts but now it's OK.
I did not succeed alone.
I unwind the lines, I preinflate the kite, I fold it in 2, then I go with the bar, and an helper walks the kite holding it by the 2 wingtips. Far
enough after I put some tensions in the lines (far enough from the kite), the helper can let the kite go. Some water might get it but with enough
wind, I can shank the front lines and hot launch it
of course, it's easier with an inflatable
