Tighe is still snapping, shooting, and writing his inspired posts about kiting - just in a different place.
I think this is OK to mention since he doesn't sell kites or give lessons anymore.

Where to ride in Madison, WI?
I'm heading down this weekend and Saturday looks really good!
I've never kited in Madison before - don't know what is etiquette and where is a good launch.
I'm very comfortable self launching, etc., but don't want to be a kook.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks,
John Z

Clear lake like it is backing off a bit... Looks windier up here.
Has anyone been by wacky? Mahtomedi?

Re: light wind boards
Hi, Jimmy,
I don't think surfboards make great light wind boards.
They are a blast for a bunch of other stuff, but the rails are too soft and the fins have too much drag.
Just my two cents.

Re: A simple, single page of wind links...
Hey, Jim, it shouldn't be. I do have some code in there that makes it full screen on an iPhone, but I think it works on a droid. I tried it on my wife's ndroid and it worked. What kind of problem are you having?

A simple, single page of wind links...
Hi, everyone,
I finally got around to consolidating my favorite wind links into one, simple, iPhone - sized page so that checking my favorite sites can be done with just my right thumb
If anyone else is interested, just go to http://www.zsyst.com/wind/.
Enjoy!

Re: Dakine Nitrous harness for kiting?
Didn't Moondog have an issue with those shorts a few years back?
I don't want to spread nasty rumors if they aren't true - and it sounded very painful and in a very sensitive area.
Does anyone remember?

Re: 17m Turbine Tighe
I'm getting a 2012 Turbine, but I'm a Slingshot whore (and proud of it) :P :P It looks like they spent a lot of brain sweat trying to make it lighter, and therefore faster. I'm curious if it will be more fragile. I have no need to be able to fly the thing in 30 mph wind :) I still have never flown a...

Wow, great story, lots of good tips. The helmet color is one I've never thought of before. I've been in that same position as Jim - desperately trying to locate someone in the water. I found them, but it took too long. I'm thinking about spray painting that bad boy orange. Yes, I do mean Jim.... and...

Re: Check your Slingshot Comp stick bar please
Hey, Diego,
I was flying Fuels, but they are older, circa 2007, so I would have known right away if I had the wrong bar.
I think I was the only guy on Fuels

Re: Problem riding a twin after a directional
Great tips, Barry!, very well said.
I agree, there seems to be more flexibility with feet, sequence of events, etc with (the smaller) kiteboard than a windsurfer.
Love it!
