First ride in two years.
Yesterday was my first attempt at riding again in two years at Medicine lake yesterday afternoon, just like riding a bike, it was fun, water was warm really gusty but the 17m Zephyr lived up to the hype I was able to handle the 15 to 25 mph winds no problem. Nice to meet you Scott and good to see Alex out there tearing it up, good times, hope to get out soon again.

Re: First ride in two years.
I've got the perfect board to complement your Zephyr. I bought it from some dude who was getting out of kiting. I think it was built by another guy up on Superior who glues them together from strips of cedar. You'd have to see it to believe it. Call me if you want a demo. We could stop at IHOP afterward for some chicken & waffles.

Yeah, I was thinking about taking a 2 year break from one of my life's most exciting & enjoyable recreational activities; maybe I'll even sell all my gear...... NOT!

Like a duck to water
After I launched you I watched you make a couple of passes followed by an effortless boost.
In that single moment I think you realized why your back.
It was a pleasure meeting you and sharing your moment.
Speed 3 21M demo always available although it's clear you found the kite you were looking for.

Re: First ride in two years.
Scott I have barely kited in the last couple of years as well. I got a session in at Hood River recently.
Glad to hear you're back out on the water. Is medicine pretty weedy?

Medicine is pretty weedy as long as you stay up your good and the west side of the lake is really weedy, all in all not to bad.
