Re: missing harness
Tom Latcham saw it there. He was on the Rasta colored TD3 9 meter. He might have picked it up. I text him your phone number... Good luck.

blown eardrum
:) Glad I threw in the windsurfer at the last minute. Kited first on the 7 meter for a while and then switched to windsurfing for the last session in the 40 MPH gusts around 4 pm... FYI if you have a helmet put back in your ear flaps...and make sure you launch your kite away from shore and then be s...

Re: Give him your thoughts
I was shocked when I heard his name on the news last night. I had to text Tighe to see if I was right... Coach sold me my first newer kites. The Naish X3's. Like you said Steve he is a survivor. He survived getting dragged by his ankle half way across Waconia by a kite... My Prayers are with you and...

Re: Alexandria
Waking up at Ottertail after leaving Mille and Reddy Creek at 1:45 pm Saturday. Picked up a Stranded kite on my way there. Went out on 14 first but was too over powered. Ed the gracious host rigged his 11 for me and out I went again. It was nice to get a session even if it was 7 hours after I left h...

Re: Alexandria
11-14 AT Green Lake does not sound too exciting. My vote is for Ottertail or Lake in Alex.... NW corner of the state is where the wind is. The low will be moving across the North Dakota and Canadian Border and then heading up towards Hudson Bay. My guess is that Mille will be light. The low has slow...

Dang! :shock: I love jumping by the cliff for lift!!! Maybe I should reconsider. Was in the cliff north of the launch or south? If it was the north side, there could have been a current of air streaming unimpeaded over the top of the bluff and accellerated by the thermal on the road and cropland...I...
