Have your kite pumped and lines run early so it is ready later on.

Don't get twisted before you go.

REI had some led waterproof lights with whistle and landyard. Put one on your person and a couple on your kite.

Wear a warmer suit...especially of use if something goes wrong.

Have a solid safety plan with everyone who is kiting.

In all honesty, Sherman is a advanced spot.

Add strong wind and reduced visibility..

Night kiting is super risky.
