I think the last time they were calling for big winds... it came up briefly and then settled in around 10mph... I hope this one isn't a fluke. I say get it as soon as you can...

So how was Alameda after I left @ 3pm........?? According to the graph it looked like it got pretty gusty.

I think it was one of the worst windy days at Alameda that I can remember.... Super gusty and up and down... plus the chop was very bumpy and the rain came down so hard that it made my face sting...

I'll see you out there tomorrow for another round....

It WAS good. Where was everyone?

Even though it rained pretty hard on me time to time, just like Bill said I just start laughing in rain, I couldn't see anything it was ALL GRAY but somehow it was funny and had a great time. It was lonely tho. I just wished it wasn't raining, water should be warmer, clearner, less gusty, etc. I guess I am asking too much for storm winds....

Check out SFO now... 55mph gusts to 71... and I was just on the water little over an hour ago...

I rode the 12m Vegas again in winds from 13 to 26 (gusts in mid 30's)

Good C-kite.... though not a bow kite.... good high and lowend ... but its no bow... realaunch is the best I have had for a c-kite...
