Mid-week Delta Wind

The marine layer should deepen middle week and onshore flow should
increase as a trough approaches California. This will bring the
marine air into the Delta area and possibly into the adjacent valley
areas and cooling temperatures in the middle 80s to middle 90s.

Dewey,
I was there for the good wind, but I was playing chase car for my girlfriend's downwinders.

By the time I got launched (around 6) it was getting lighter and by 8 it died completely.

I guess you still haven't got a 10M kite, huh?

I already blew my kite budget for, like, the next two years.

If you like the Outrages so much, how come you're getting a 9M Rapture instead of a smaller OR?

I don't like small high aspect kites. The 8 needed a lot of wind to get my but out of the water. I though that the 9m rap would do a little better. Never flown one yet though. Charlie loves his. A new one is less than $700, so why not give it a try???

That's good to know. I love my 10M kite (Liquid Force). It picks me way up out of the water. And I almost never use my 8, an older Airrush, so it hasn't been a priority to get a newer one. :shock:
