I am in Seatac, WA right now babysitting my brothers kids while he is in Germany. I can probably get some free time to go kiting in the surrounding Seattle area between now and March 22nd but after that I am here for 2 weeks with no responsibilities and wouldn't mind hitting up the Portland area.

Any land kiters in the NW that know some good spots and/or want to meet up? I am guessing it is too cold to kite on the water but I am still a beginner on the water so I would need to rent gear if I did that.

Let me know look forward to kiting up here!

what kind of gear do you have Landboard / buggy? sunset beach, OR is about 4 hour drive.

i brought a blade3 5m and a peter lynn venom2 13m.

didn't ship my mountain board or my other kites out here from des moines, ia.

i would be game on going down there though, i should have access to a car after march 22.

joeblinky, there are a handful of places around you can kite/buggy/board at, and a couple of good ones also. I'm about 10 minutes from you in Renton. I have a lot of extras if you are interested.

Sic man!

When do you want to go???

The only wind i see is up to 16mph tonight in Renton. Don't see much in the next week though.

Seems like with these micro-climates there is a always a windy spot within a few hours drive. Is that usually the case?

As soon as it stops raining,

Ya, I left the house the other day with my new 11m and 15m NPW9 and the wind was just enough to tell it was moving, got to the park and 20 to 25mph. Well to say the least I only had the big boyz and decided to go to work instead :flaming:

are there park names or anything for those spots? i am just looking for a little fix right now, i have an hour and a half and i havn't flown in about 2 months.

winds are 17-23 right now... so perfect!

well... anderson park south of seatac....

can't really tell too much from google maps but i am going for it :-)
