Wylde Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Evening all. @ Encona Got your text. Borth or BRS. Both work for me as I'll be at our cottage in Llwyngwril, slap bang in the middle! Will you be in Harlech? Where can I find us on Facebook? Bought a new kite from John (PKS) on Monday...........so have to fly it now. Sold a 5m Jo Jo RS and a PL Arc 630 at a Car Boot on Sunday. Bought a Ozone Flow 5m..........only £149........wow. Already have a 4 line bar with my 2m Sammy so sorted. Also got an MBS Core 90 Fat Face board last birthday that's never been used so ready to rock. Ooops. Have I now given our trip the kiss of death.........new toys etc.......I'll pack some no wind toys too!!!!

Yep. You are spot on if you want an on-shore. The Westerly would probably work for Cemetary Beach (Dovey) too. Haven't looked at the forecast yet myself. You got the pics from Google Earth?

Neomax25 Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Hey Encona, i'm guessing the message you just posted about getting Lee to invite someone you mean the same Lee i know of through my Wife Natasha (Tash the bash). So whats Lee's user name in here? About the post you put up for me earlier, about starting in light winds and so on. did that last year already got my feet now i'm wanting to start moving up the ladder, i already use a 2.4m TriBord kite and have a kiteboard. I just got out my North Rhino 10m earlier to let it air off as it was a little wet. Looks good though, all looks well with it, just no lines, no bar, no harness, need to inflate it and see it's bladders are ok. Here's one of me on the beach at Tenby with Tash, if you listen carefully you can here her laughing at me...lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSlacAmgMxs
LichRich Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 BRS is ok in westerly or southerly as beach plenty big enough for diagonal runs. Borth needs to be onshore as not so much room diagonals. @Neomax - Lee is Bootlace on here but he seems to prefer facebook
encona1599968593 Posted March 4, 2009 Author Report Posted March 4, 2009 @Wylde cany find you on FB dude
