How about the Wac tomarrow around 10:00? Perfect conditions for testing out my new 13 meter Instinct Edge. I'm not good at self-launching so I would like to meet someone out there. Anyone interested give me a call on mycell phone: 612 868 0393

Mike, it sounds like I'm going to miss the maiden voyage of that monster. Have fun it sounds like a kick ass kite, you should get some good rides on that thing. Man, the wind's been cranking all night, I had no idea it was coming up like that. Too bad I have to work.

Anybody else make it out last night after work?

I ran into Kurt at Ramsey on Monday while I was rigging up. He was nicely powered on his 13 and Crazyfly aircraft carrier. The wind looked down so I rigged a 17.5 machine to go with my 129 Nobile 666. Had some good rides before the wind picked up in the high 20's. tired of getting spanked, I left at 8:30 or so.

Thanks Jerry for the launch and chat. It's always great to meet new people.

It was a nice surprise session at bellaire yesterday after Mike W and I got skunked earlier when the rain cell moved in.

I've ridden exclusively the 13m pro and crazyfly 145x48 for the past several sessions. Although I was plenty lit yesterday at times and could have been on a smaller board I didn't feel compelled enough, in terms of diminished performance with the aircraft carrier, to have to go in and get my smaller board. Then a lull would come through and I'd be glad I still was on my big board.

My 2 cents: A must have all around board.
