yes, I think I definitely need a few more meters yesterday. But it was up when rigging. I kept having to fly the 12m up and down to keep it aloft. Wanted to come back in and rig up to a 15 or 18 but never made it back. I was too stubborn and kept trying to get back up wind. I did make it back to the...

that stands for Down Wind! I couldn't stay up wind for nothing today. Started at Bellaire and finished closer to Mahtomedia. I had the ultimate "ride" of shame back to my van thanks to a local Joe A. who lives on the lake. Thanks Joe. I had to bail out and swim back to shore from mid lake....

Just flying the 12 M access. I could have went bigger but still a little timid with some incidences on the ice. Wind was probably only 10 to 15 mph at best, no white caps on the lake, yet I was impressed with the power of the kite in that I was getting rides on a 12M kite and the 7.5m windsurfers no...

Had a great kiting session at RC beach WBL. First successful session with transition from snow to water. Did have a few walks of shame at first getting stuck in the NW corner but eventually figured it out and was able to ride back to near starting point. Couple of times I thought I'll never windsurf...

Just returned from a 4 hour session at Ramsey Beach. Conditions are great. Solid 9m inflatable, a couple of 6 and 4 foils going. Mike W getting big air on his 10 TD bow. Surface is fine for either skis or board. I was on a board and no problem getting an edge. Ice is going fast-breaking through ice ...

Just had an excellent session at Ramsey beach WBL. Surface was fine-better than it looked. Decent edge on a snowboard. Solid 18m conditions for 3 hours. Wind seemed to be dying off when I left at 1230

Looks like a bit of wind this morning. The lakes look too icy to grab an edge. Anyone aware of rideable surfaces? How was the surface at WBL?
thanks Kurt

Hello. Any thoughts/reccommendations on buying a gps watch would be much appreicated. thanks Kurt

Desperate ( as always for a ride) so got an 18m up on little lake como in st. paul on my way home from work. I'm quite sure there's never been a traction kite on that lake before. New lines thanks to Mike W. and new board thanks to Steve. B. The surface was great. A few inches of snow over crusted i...

I had a 5.5m up at the crack of dawn - as I was desperate to get a ride before leaving town. I should have known better. The slush was 6 inches thick. My board stuck to the ice like a suction cup. The kite and lines were caked with slush and ice. Terrible conditions at the moment. :( Good luck. Kurt
