THANX ALL 4 SHOWING UP 2 THE MLK KITEATHON. We had several enthusiastic participants despite the lack of wind:Mikes B. & W, Randy L, Chad w/a student & his Dad, Dave Z, Tighe, (who am I 4-getting?) Someone on an OZ foil, & yours truly. It lasted 'til dark thanks to DZ's blinky lights & my head-lights. Let's hope we can do it again next year!

another great session. Plenty to rip around and carve endless S turns. Three days in a row of wind, does a number on the legs. My thighs were burning. Beautiful just being on the lake at the close of the day. Very unique sunset. Amazing how light it stayed well past sun down.

Good to have Max out there again. Hope to see more of you mon. Looking good on your new kite. Good also to see Scott out there.

Thanks for the use of your Turbo Turbo Diesel pump Randy ; )

Hey Rob...nice to hear from you. I don't think you've posted all winter. Glad to see you're still kicking.

Good late afternoon on WBL. Tighe, thanks for being the Obi-Wan to the kiting community. As a newbie, I appreciate the tips and techniques advice that helps so much to shorten the learning curve. Your enthusiasm and supportive positive attitude is always refreshing, I am impressed by the friendliness and helpfulness of the kiters.

Hi Steve,

Yes Sir, still kicking, kiting and posting every once in a while. See you at the Crossing! Funny that is the only time our paths cross.
