LAKAWA

so i was on a short vacation to the outer banks and was able to drive down to the haterras area and only saw a couple people out kiting. i thought there would be fleets of them as the wind was blowing steady. where do people kite in this area? we drove from Kitty Hawk all the way down to the Haterra...

had a fantastic session on turtle today. more than enough wind on a 12m turbo diesel from 0845 to 11am. first session of the year so i was grinning hard all morning. it was fun to see some familiar faces out there as well. Thanks again mike for realigning my invert. saved me a good 15 minutes of mes...

has anyone kited lake onalaska, summer or winter? i am in la crosse for the next few months and am looking to kite, but not to drive.

Had a great day out at malmo yesterday. Travis and i were kiteboarding out on water for the first time (so awful that that hasn't happened yet) and it was a blast. we were both out on 12m td's and were well lit-up on our 140-150lb frames. i thought the learning curve was way slower than on a snowboa...

Kirst and i will be out there around 9ish, trying to get her another ride in b4 the crowds if there will be any. I think Travis and Ryan will be out there at some point today too.
Kurt, did your wife get out at all?

It was on and off this morning, there were a couple of 45 minute periods of steady strong wind, gusty and spotty though. had a news helicopter hovering over me for about 15 minutes around 0830 (chanel 5 i think) unfortunately i didn't give them much of a show. Kurt it was fun kiting with you, fun to...

Will be out to Ramsey about 8 this morning.

TRav, Ryan or anyone else, up for a 0700 session tomorrow? or if not then, 0900? Ramsey? Centerville? you know you want to.

Got to Bellaire with Ryan and Travis around 4pm, pretty low wind, spotty at best, but did get some riding in so not to bad all in all. definitely not as good as forecasted though. hope others had better luck elsewhere.

so where is good on a Northeast wind? bellaire? seems like there are too many ice houses there. any suggestions?

who needs a day job, they are overrated. Mahtomedi was great on thursday, the blowing fresh snow evened out the terrain, much smoother now. wind was blowing strong from noon to 330. tyson showed up just as i was leaving- hope you had a good session! definitely warmer than wednessday, i was actually ...

Going to try mahto today again at 11 or 12. Yesterday was plenty strong to get speed and air even on the mogul fields, hoping today will be rideable too!

I will be out by 2 or 230 to Mahto. hopin for a bit more wind than forecasted.

a response to the ozone hat emergency system- Kirst was flying my ozone 10m, a gust hit and as a new rider it tipped her over, the kite flew to the edge of the window and crumpled and twisted, she pulled the hat as the kite was spinning and balled up and due to the balling up of the kite it had no e...

Pretty good on mahto today. i was out from 1 til 4pm, gusty for most of the area, but there was a nice steady sweet spot on the north section. lots of litte snow drifts and ridges to dodge/jump (along with the frozen beer cans). Saw Chris boosting big with his fuel. Tighe, it looked like your studen...

probably going to do a dawn session. i will be there from 630 or 7 till nine.

i won't get out there till noon. thinking mahtomedi

i will be going out at noon on friday- can you get out? also thinking sunrise on saturday, goin north by like 10. plus i wanted to get out while it was still 10 below.

You taunt better than you kite my friend. lets settle this in the air. high noon friday, kite vs kite dogfight. the last kite still flying wins. Ryan won the last dogfight at calhoun, but i showed him by tearing his kite in two like a curtain at malmo. just keep that image in your head. hand guns ar...

They have outfitted kayaks with those foils as well, can reach speeds of 14 or 15 mph man powered.
