Yah, mon! Big thanks to Mike B for scouting the lakes! Glad to see I wasn't the only one who had a jonesing to kite - we all lit the sky up. What a great day.

It was great to see that many kiters on Medicine...along with the Art Shanty activities it turned into an awesome first session.

Peace.

Sorry, i just have the vhs!

Nathan, Dude mon, I get it and hope others do too. No worries...I think all factions want to preserve our sport and the sites we ride. Sorry to term it like that, but to be honest there is some kind of weird divide...oh well, in the end the ride is all that matters, something that trumps all trivial...

LOL

To All Reading, BTW regarding: We originally created the ban after a kiter was unable to relaunch his kite and got pulled into the SW bay near Thomas beach. His kite was up on shore and he was in the water. Lore has it that people on the trail were walking over his lines and a mom and stoller even w...

Strength be with his family and friends. Very sad to hear this happened.

Tighe, Thanks for your insight on what you've experienced in SPI. A loose-knit association where we all can arrive at "commonsensical" rules is more palatable to me than some kind of org with a quasi-corporate structure in-place. If I see anyone show up in a suit I'm outta there. :wink: I ...

I think there have been only around a half dozen times in the last 10 years that kiters were seen on Calhoun. All of these have been individuals who knew about the ban and decided to ignore it. Umm...in 2001 there were only a handfull of us (10-12?)...I would have never attempted to learn there if ...

That's a bummer to hear about the negative pub and complaints....I guess it is time to get our heads together again. ( If there's beer involved or onsite count me in! :D ) Yo, I'll try to get out to Milly and meet up this summer....need to dust off my water gear and get dialed in again, it's been wa...

Re: Calhoun Nathan, long time no see! Congrats on the Nat'l Rider spot! I agree, you did open a can o' worms :) . I had my first rides (downwinders) there in 2001 or so with my 2line Wipika Classic - that day I nearly stepped on a rusty syringe and was later towed to shore by a fisherman after my li...

Saweet vid, Tighe! You are right, I should've plopped a "?" in mine! (Perhaps a sequel is in-store.) Since when do you kite with a board??? I guess it's been awhile since I've flocked with the herd! Keep the stoke alive!

Thanks, Fabrino! Nice vid yourself! I gotta get me a GoPro...the image quality and stabilzation is awesome!

Pray for deep snow...a trip north of the metro looks promising!

Aloha!
