winds were NE 10-20 today with KiteDog/ Greg and local rider Robb VanWie. Them on the water and me in the bug. I had to work hard to get up the beach but the downwinders were awesome. Spent a lot of time with the Buster Soulfly 3.3m and was really impressed. It's speed allowed great upwind work and VERY deep downwind reaches without dropping the kite. - just kept it zinging around to keep the lines tight and was going near dead downwind faster than the windspeed itself.

Saturday looks to be East, more on-shore and very awesome, but i can only do morning till about noon,
