Sunset Beach Oregon


I am new to the forum and power kiting. I will be down at Sunset Beach this Sunday and am hoping to meet up with some experienced buggy riders to help get started. I have a Ozone 3m kite that I have flown some but no other equipment.

Any input will be greatly appreciated.

Welcome Tim. Nice to have another on board. I know Sand Flea and myself will be there early on sunday, probably a few others as well. Look to someone else if you're looking for experience... I'm fairly new myself by comparison :D. Low tide is just before 11am if i recall, wind is looking fairly light...so the bigger kites will be up, but a good time will be had none the less. Usually a mile or so north of the Sunset Beach Ln access is the place to go. Maybe we'll see ya there.

Oh yeah! Good times were had, but next time you need to bring higher winds with you Tim! My buggy will be available for you to learn on. I did a great deal of learning myself as I have struggled with low wind flying. Feeling very confident with it after sundays session. Was able to keep the kite up in even less winds on the buggy today in rockaway. Can't wait for more!
