Wednesday

Post by Ron » Sun Nov 20, 2011 7:22 pm

Early forecast looks promising for Wednesday. I need a full day sesh' if the wind shows up as planned. Where would you go to kite all day: Waddell, half moon bay, OB, bay (3rd or east), north of the golden gate?

I am thinking on the coast somewhere but what do you all think??

Storm Sesh + A-Town + 2 kites/barsets = All Day Kiting

What's "A-Town"? Looks like it will be strongest up north, Point Reyes and Bodega Bay. Of course it can change before Wednesday, but I'm curious because I have never been to those spots. It looks like they might also have wind on Tuesday, but I can't go then. If anyone is headed out from SF on Wednesday I could use a ride.

search for Dillon beach sure you will find what you need.

WAIT, Where are you seeing this positive forecast? I'm not seeing anything but rain and SE winds 10 to 15.

I'm in for Wednesday if "something" happens. And we all know what that thing is.

80-90% of the storm days I've kited...

Bay will get a consistent 11-13 knot breeze in b/w fronts

High teens / low 20's gusting to high 20's or more during them

Pump your biggest kite and your smallest kite and just A-Town that $hit all day long

Ron for you that would be your biggest GK and your smallest Caution. Or your smallest GK if you only ride Caution on the days you're down at Waddell
