Saturday - Kiting




The wind was really patchy - at the launch site, there was just enough wind to loft the 16m. After moving out, the wind bent in from an altered direction (land mass upwind effecting the flow), then it filled in nicely, and finally at the sailing boundary line (established so you don't accidentally head off to the West Coast of Africa), the wind was too much for the 16m.

I managed to get some pretty high jumps with rotations.

I also used my new pair of surf trunks - I picked the color because my wife likes me in orange. I feel like a bowl holding fruit salad when I look at the trunks - don't ask me why.
