kid in a lolly shop! Or a Pig in excrement.

Just wanted to share my joy with someone that cares (hopefully). LOL

Got my lines and handles today. Resleeved the lines and attached them to my Bora. Now I´m hoping that the forecast 13 - 15 knot NNE winds for tomorrow might be a bit lower at Chelsea Bicentennial Park. Can´t wait to get out tomorrow and practice on my Bora. As anything over 10 knots will probably kill me  I will have to wait even longer with my practice sessions. Fingers crossed for light winds.

It's the new kite curse.

When ever you get a new kite, the wind gods know, and they don't give you what you need to fly it.

I had a 10m fixed bridal foil to try (2 week loan) for light wind conditions. Didn't drop below 10 knots for the 2 weeks when ever I was free.

Got desperate after visiting a friend one Friday night (well 2am Saturday morning), and went to the park in the dark to fly it.

Rigging a kite in the dark is interesting, even more when your not sure you've rigged it correctly and it's a 10m foil in 6 knots.

All went well, but the kite was a dog.

 

Winds from the NW, means it will come from over the pine trees and tends to be gusty, not the best for trying a new kite.

I'd say wait it out.

I´m an undying optimist ... hoping for the perfect wind conditions. LOL

Like I said... I´m an undying optimist. But unfortunatly I think the Wind Gods don´t mean well for tomorrow in Dean either. But
