Just got back...wind never got above 11 and that was only for a brief moment. Ended up flying my big kite on the beach and getting to know it better...figured out how to do little 2 ft jumps. I still had fun flying the kite so it wasn't all bad AND I didn't get rained on.

Looks like we're gonna stay on this side of the water today...maybe go to one of the beaches around here. Wind is forecasted, whatever that means, to pick up tomorrow afternoon so I may ride out to Hampton if it pans out.

I thought about skippin' out myself but sometimes that's hard to do when your boss is your father-in-law and he's fully aware of a certain kite obsession. I'll be in Ocean View right after work though.

It's supposed to blow pretty decent thru Friday.

woo - hoooooo!!!!!!! I had a blast ! got to my secret location about 12:00 ,tide was high .So I drank beer and played w/ my little pansh aces, man for a little kite they sure can fling ya around! About 3:00 the hard sand started showing and I started buggyin! The wind was perfectly out of the east. I tore the beach up for a couple of hours then I started hearin this sound I can't even describe. But I know what bit means , a bearing race just disintegrated ! That didn't stop me though I was havin way too much fun. So now I'm home and I gotta tear down the wheels to replace bearings! Anyway you guys missed a kick ass day, but I did about 50- 60 runs up and down the beach . Today was the kind of day I dream of!:thumbup::thumbup::D

I had a pretty good day too. Went to Ocean View and kite boarded about a mile downwind. The only bad part was the walk back. One of these days I'll learn how to stay upwind. LOL.

The wind chart looked like it was totally in your favor. You must have been screemin' up and down that beach. Were you able to buggy back to the entrance?
