Tide? What's a tide? Man, it's 1000 miles to any ocean.

Wow.....the snow looks great out there! Wind was howling here all day yesterday but for some reason I was compelled to pull out our old countertops on
the 31st and the project carried over to the 1st. I suspect that you had similar winds for a ride like that on the Adam.

They just twintip park models, 170cm. No stakes to be seen, loaded up to jump the wind ridge in the snow and left a ski behind. Did well to land on
one ski but ate it....lol
Mac, you need to come out to Buck, my neighbour started kiting a few days ago but handling kites super good!
Wind speed was around 25 - 30kmph , I was on a 3.5m Adam foil as per video and it had plenty of power
