After all this time, last night I found out that my Naish bar has an attachment for below the bar safety on the front lines :-) spinning system here we come! Though the leash is now dragging which is very annoying on land.

Ok guys, just checked tommorrows forecast, looking good around lunchtime and midday low tides.

:-( would love to guys but not on the early shift otherwise would have popped down later afternoon.

 

I can see NooNoo is seriously trying to get as many sessions as he can in this year which is spot on, exactly what I plan to do.

 

I am getting fed-up of getting a session then waiting months to get another one, aim is for quantity and if quality comes GREAT.

 

Not getting of to a great start, Sat I can't do as taking Jens to a party midday, but will be getting a sneaky land session in before.

 

DM been out to crabtree since your return?

Anyone up for a session tomorrow? I'm on vacation now hence looking to get out.

 

Mark,

think the plan is to meet Colyn at Hayling around noon. i will hopefully get there a bit earlier probably leaving basingstoke around 10 or 11 so if you want a lift send me a text.

i was at work last night so will go to bed now till around 9:30 and will check on here when i get up.:cool:

Colyn,

Can you let me know by text or reply on here if Hayling is still the planned destination.

I've just created a group on facebook for us, thinking behind this is that we all visit facebook more regularly than we do this forum. If you pm me your facebook name i'll send an invite out to you.

Renewals are due for Hayling this week.

Been talking it over with Mark and wanted to see what everyones thoughts are on the venue and what you intend doing this year?

I like Hayling but theres quite a few negatives too..:parking charges,no sailing at high tide,car parked so far from launch,busy,some attitude issues.

For t...he hours travel time there are a lot of alternatives available to us one being calshot which although slightly more expensive offers free parking,showers,works any tide and a northerly option in the winter, on-site kiteshop.

So what you all think?

Interesting proposal Spuds. My thinking is that I only ever make it to hayling a handful of times a year but occasionaly it is worth it. I will probably join again just to keep membership. Any other thoughts?

Same I think. Although my evening session madness has given me some decent rides doen there.

 

Anyway I just tried to rejoin and what a surprise the technology failed. IT :mad:

 

WEEKEND.

 

I thinking of a couple of dawn raids before i shoot up to North Wales to collect the van bits I need for the latest incarnation of the van internals. I've got to get this done, but the wind forecast is so much better down here this weekend.

Hey lads, I see there hasn't been a post on here in ages but its worth a shot! I was wondering if there's anyone around that goes up Crabtree or anywhere else around the Basingstoke area? I'm in desperate need of Kiteing buddys!

 

Cheers, Callum

Hi Callum,

 

A few of us still get up there, through the wind has not been great for it recently!

 

We kitesurf as well so if conditions are good were usually at the coast. Spudley gets up there a bit and I intend to when we get the weather, have a new Trampa board with very little use to get going on.

 

There is a group on facebook where we all post now, Basingstoke Kiters.

Ah cool mate, yeah I know! Got my Frenzy last Sunday and that's the only day I have been able to get out there! Either Rain or no wind!

 

I have tried to join the group on facebook and just need you guys to confirm me now :) The name is Callum Lewington.

 

Ah cool, well be sure to throw me a message if you know of anyone heading up there or your doing so yourself, I think I could do with a guiding hand with all this new Depower and landboard stuff! I'm trying my best on my own but nothing beats watching someone else show you ;)

 

Cheers mate, Callum

Evening Hales,

 

Why you coming on Land, surely summer is perfect time to be hitting the beach? Just wondering as I will be heading to the beach as much as I can when the summer hits, would of been down there today but was stuck in the office till quiet late and cant afford the fule at the moment :(

 

My brother has an old MBRS board sat in mum and dads loft and he is thinking of selling it, I can find out a price and let you know if you like? Juts drop me a PM :)

 

Windy Regards,

 

Jonno
