Hope everyone that can go ride today double checks there equipment!! Looks like it could be good!! Unfortunatly I have to work today. Ride safe, SEND IT!!!!! :shock:

It's kind of too windy now, scary and unsafe windy, but maybe it'll mellow out a bit later...

I'm heading back to CA from NY later today and when I checked Ikite I thought maybe the site had changed to Km/h instead of Mp/h!

Probably some good kiting in places that normally aren't WINDY ENOUGH to kite ever.

[adamrod]

uh. yeah. check the ikitesurf wind reports. coyote pt has been averaging 45 with gusts into the mid 50s. that's mph folks.

i think a 1m trainer should do the trick.

Okay, UFOs on December 27th makes me think...

Flying a red and white, 10-meter kite today? Riding a green FLX 128? Hucking the tules at Sherman Island all alone? Not a reindeer in sight?

(Thanks and a tip of the hat to Indian Bob for the launch.)

A jolly 'ol elf, giggling and scared with a bowl full of jelly. Based on the altitude it must have been none other than...

Old Saint Nick! Santa YOU crazy!

(Check the iK wind archives, it was quite a holiday treat. Not for small people or beginners. Santa-sized conditions you might say.)


:rolleyes:

[narly1]

We could have used some of that wind down here today - nothing until 2pm, then it ramped up to a whopping 10mph, (out of the east!).
