Galveston Trip


I will be in Galveston Tx. next week at a week long conference. I am planning on taking the kites since I will be right on the beach. i am going to try to squeeze in some rides in the late afternoon.

Do any of you local guys have a good spot to recommend or want to meet up? I don't know any of the local do/don't spots to try to ride.

I have gear for both water and land but no wet suit if the water is to cold. I will probably stick to the landboard. (Buggy won't fit in the work car) Since it is a work trip I have classes all day so I can only play after about 4:30p. How far away are you? So East Beach is where to go?

yeah .. you're gonna have to sneak out a little earlier to have time to play. Good thing is you are already there so would only take a few minutes to get to east beach. I will have my buggy if you want to make some runs. I might have a second buggy ready by monday next week so I will have two buggy available for demo if you would like to ride. I also have a scrub and a flexboard.

I tested the water this weekend and it's not too bad. you could surf without a suit if the weather warms up next week. it was high 70's on the weekend and the water was cool but not too cold.

I will double check the schedule and figure out when I might be able to sneak out. The conference is over on Thursday at noon I think. Maybe we can plan for Thursday afternoon. I will keep you all posted. I would love to get a buggy run in!
