Pending how light / strong the wind is, we will be practicing the self launch and land with a fixed anchor/carabiner as well as without.

Also flying a kite without being hooked in requiring hand on chicken loop & other on the bar. Can be used if you become accidental unhooked or sometimes in launching and landing in sketchy places as an extra safety as well as transferring a kite that is up in the air...

1st Street Green maybe a little wet from the rain but wind is building and sky's are clearing.

Give me a shout if you are around and want a site intro for Benicia and gear checkout.

Already higher than forecast.

Yes, Weather Channel is a great indicator for Benicia in terms of forecast.
