I would say definitly get your smaller kite repaired. October is starting to get into winter and nonwindy season (but wavey). Summer is pretty full on windy. Check out windguru.com for Maui. If it says steady 12-14, it pretty much means a lot more then that. Windsurfers will be on 5.0s and less pret...

Just wanted to pass these two sites on. Its a bit addicting as the stuff changes all the time (check it often or you will miss something really good!). Some great deals if anyone wants to buy outerware, skis, boots ect.. Both are run by backcountry.com http://www.tramdock.com http://www.steepandchea...

I think my wife and I are going to come to Mille Lacs for the first time this weekend. Should be showing up late in the evening on Sat. Will probably camp if there is a good spot. Any suggestions? I assume Reddy is the place where it will be best for the wind direction? Is it good for windsurfing to...

Lake Ontario can be good. Frenchmans Bay in Pickering is good for SW-SE, nice big beach. Oshawa beach in Oshawa is where lots of kiters hang out. Beaverton (1 1/4 hours) on Lake Simcoe is good for NW-SW. Goderich is the same but farther. Kingston can rock on a SW, but mostly only in the fall, summer...

A couple of quick comments: John is right, as much weight as possible on the harness, but to clarify, he means down not outward. YOu could almost feel like you are sitting in your harness off of your lines. It could be good to use your hands and arms with pressure aswell until you get more comfortab...

Check out a place called Sherman Island, pretty near to a place called Rio Vista or Antioch CA. About 1 and a 1/4 hours inland from SF. It used to be free to camp/trailer in the "parking lot", if you want to call it that. Super cool community hanging out there. No power or water, so bring ...

This one from Canadian comedian Rick Mercer in his weekly political satire show aired nationally.

Funny thing though... at the end of an epic session, a seasons worth of gas (whether 3 or 4 / gallon) seems like peanuts! Or to me it does at least!

I dont think bindings will make any real performance difference for you when kiting. I get a bit worried when using older bindings as you never know how they were treated and what condition they are in inside (which is what is important). For example being on a roof rack in the salt and dirt on the ...

14m SS TD2,

So I have been starting to jump and was hoping for some help. Especially in lighter wind, i travel downwind and the kite loses all its power and sinks to the ground. I have noticed I tend to move my forward hand farther forward therefore bringing the kite back to the power zone (and beyond sometimes...

Wait.. Im pretty new to kiting (especially to inflatables, I just bought a new SS Turbo to add to my foil), but this is pretty much how I have been self landing thus far.

How do you normally do it? Or should I say normally used to do it?

We completely support the previous "worth the drive" post.

Both Jackie and I had a wicked time down there.

Great work on the organization and super cool to meet some of MN finest.

Mark and Jackie

Count two more,

We will be driving in late tonight and will ride tomorrow (Friday) hopefully.

Mark and Jackie

Two MN rookies coming in from Canada tonight, will try to be out for tomorrow morning at Swede lake.

Cant wait.
