today i broke my record for hrs logged in a month of kite flying 153 hrs in may--beating my previous best by 4 hrs haha one of these months i'll hit 200 lol

Ok Phreerider, how do you stack up with this guy? I'm green with envy. :bigok:

around 20 sessions in 7day peroid was probably my best

water and land around the clock. most sessions 3-4hours with a few full tide swings about 6 hours

should be a thread covering most of it

actually just got back from a moon session around 3 hours beautiful 1/2 moon

we get a few week long blows that can stack up if you have the time.

monthly.... couple hundred here and there would not surprise me

way to go

time, the only cure for the progression disease

its easy piling on the hrs when its an OBSESSION :wee: phreerider--im going to call you the PHILOSOPHER--always alot of insight and wisdom i get from your posts......

glad to have this forum so all may benefit, because i have learned alot here too.

glad to help KITEJUMPER

kiting is a fitness avenue as well as an outlet for expression for me

during sessions i usually use the time to meditate and listen to music

esp. at night i find the solitude is deeply relaxing.

the contact i have had on this forum is good for me as well ...all very positive

I'm extremely jealous of you gents. I'm lucky to get in 20 hours a month. Usually more like 10.

Cheers I'm a weekend warrior once or twice a week with maybe 2-3 hours in each session.


That's just some awesome stuff!! I would love to do a moonlit session on the beach, that'd be amazing.

yah,its great--you can pick up alot of subtle techniques flying everyday its getting better all the time--today its raining--but hopefully it will dry up--and you KNOW i'll be out there--

I've found that my local conditions are generally useless for traction kiting. :-(

So, I will travel hours to a beach praying for decent weather, winds, tides and small crowds.

During the few times it all comes together, I forgo resting, eating, drinking, sleeping or being a bearable person for my non-kiter buds to try and keep up with.

I kite alone... a lot!

after the the summer time thunderstorms and the heat pass here, i have had some total chilled rain sessions on the water

music on, no one on the beach, tidal pool heaven, dead onshore breeze around 15-20mph

rained the whole time, launch to landing about 2hours. you could run really close over the beach ...actually remember working on toeside stuff last fall.
