I can't think of any place I'd rather be this weekend but we have a baseball tournament. I'm really jones'n for a beach run on some hard sand. You
guys have fun for us that can't make it.acampbell - 5-3-2009 at 06:33 AM

I just can't imagine the quality of life it must be to see a Jekyll Island wind report and realize that I could be taking advantage of the good news
within 15 minutes. That stuff is only for dreams.indigo_wolf - 5-3-2009 at 08:06 AM

Ill have you all in thought on Sat..............JI should be sweet today.......windmapper has a 10k easterly component there at the moment, nice buggy
runs minimal pedestrians...............
I tightened up the hunny-do-list today, cleaned the longboards (wax-off/wax-on), and ready for 10 to 20 mph SSW tomorrow. Make you feel any better

NO, you are just as blessed. I'm glad I get to live vicariously with you guys
that get to fly multiple times per week. Keep the stories coming. Especially the equipment/conditions info.kitedog - 5-3-2009 at 09:41 AM
The tides look a little upside down for a down and back. I wanna go but I'm waffling.acampbell - 5-3-2009 at 02:19 PM
Well we got skunked today. The paper mill smoke stacks and all the flags indicated East wind, but I get to the beach and it's NNE. Short chops on
the beach. so it's not all paradise all the time!
Low tide just before noon Saturday, and a near spring tide at that. good enough for mekitedog - 5-3-2009 at 02:56 PM
Hmmm...if we get up and out by 5 AM, we can be there by 11. Giving it serious thought...johnnylaing - 5-3-2009 at 11:04 PM

Laura plus 2 more

That's 5 kites so far....kitedog - 6-3-2009 at 07:44 AM
Ok...we're driving down this evening. What time are you guys heading out there in the morning?acampbell - 6-3-2009 at 07:54 AM
Great Greg. I'll head out just after 10 am. Light south winds in the AM, supposed to clock around to SE 10-15 kts. in the afternoon. Sweet!
I'll have to go by about 3p.kitedog - 6-3-2009 at 08:03 AM
Tide will be getting a bit high by then anyway. We're going to drive back tomorrow night so we'll probably jet around that time as well. 4 or 5
hours of kiting is just what the doctor ordered!:wee:johnnylaing - 6-3-2009 at 09:53 PM
forcast update...I'm seeing mostly south from 3 sources...should we keep an option open for running the point at St. Simons??? That stretch runs
east-west and sure is sweeeet...kitedog - 7-3-2009 at 08:13 PM
That was sweet today guys! Excellent day...just what I needed!
Gotta give a quick kudos to Fat Sands Progression dvd. Thanks to their instruction my hop 180s are kickin' I did my first little controlled jumps and
one aerial transition. Too cool. I wish I lived on the beach!johnnylaing - 7-3-2009 at 11:26 PM

I just set this up...not sure what's best...I'll take suggestions for easy and quality ways to share photos...what do others use???kitedog - 8-3-2009 at 07:23 AM
