Winds are finally here! **(Pictures added)**


This week is the return of wind for the midwest. I've been watching the weather all week and all day tomorrow the wind is forecast at 17-20mph winds all day.

I'm wicked excited. The weather has been cruel this summer out here. There was one day of wind above 10mph that was usable. the rest of the windy days were accompanied by thunderstorms.

I'm looking forward to some big airs and nice tricks tomorrow. i'm feeling stoked!:ninja:

Pictures and story is here! http://nowhereboyskiteboarding.blogspot.com/

Is there any part of the US where winds are NOT lousy during the summer? At least here in Houston and Galveston there's almost no big wind daily between the hot months of May and September.

It's amazing to me that the 2 days I now work a week are the 2 day that consistently have wind :( and none of the others do.



Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...
