Has anyone kited in Florence, Oregon? Can share some info? I might be taking a trip there next week - looks like a killer spot! According to the iKite archive, it was kiteable with solid sideshore wind about about 10 days last September. Thanks in advance!

Just bring your 5/3, booties, hood and gloves (in case it's really-really cold). Water was 50 degrees in Newport a couple of weeks ago. A 2 hour session left us both with totally numb feet. And huge grins on our faces!
