Yesterday was our first day of snowkiting on the Tug! We all met up at the Hanno lot for some fun, friends, and flying. Conditions were not the
best, Gusty wind, sticky snow made for poor riding, but Jan and Jackie worked with some new kiters, Liz and Chris, and got them to "Take Off!" on
their boards for at least a taste, and it was a fun day, so I picked a fun song for the video. Crew in attendance were Jan, Jackie, bigben91682(Ben),
Liz, Chris, and myself. Will post as conditions improve!

No,I just flew my 8M static for a while. When I first got there, I 'slid' my board across the snow, and it went about 2 feet and stuck, with no
weight on it! I've tried to ride those conditions before, very conducive to face plants!(especially for me!) My board is in the shop getting tuned
up, the board I had Sunday, I just got used from a guy at work, it hasn't been used (or waxed) in 5yrs or so, so whatever wax may have been on it is
probably gone. When I get my board back, this one will go in. Then I'll have a spare. Looks like rain today and tomorrow, then a possibility of
snow later in the week, so I'll keep you all updated on conditions in the Tug Hill thread.
