Hey I don't think I need to inform anyone, but its windy! Nor cal kiters should be getting some good times today, keep it safe! Use good judgement, if its 23-40 and all you have is a 12 don't do it! ^^

I did rain kiting on Tuesday, don't think I'm up for a repeat today. Is anyone seeing any concrete signs that we may be getting some non-rain/good wind time this afternoon? Which sites?
