Teaser
 
Uh yah.... I got to the beach around 3PM.... saw the palms blowing in the wind, set up my gear, got the kite launched, watched the kite fall out of the sky, packed up around 4PM. Enough to drive me into a few hours of depression. What a teaser!!!

RGGGHHHH I want my WINTER BACK!!!

:mad:

It's okay gentleman....I see plenty of wind on the horizon!!! We should all get our fix at least one day, towards the latter part, of this week. :)

The PaG sensor currently says 3, so yes, I am going riding!
Thank goodness for cameras. (I see white caps, baby!!)

Skyway Scott 03-11-2007 06:45 PM

That was fun. Thanks for having faith and coming out, Danny, despite the whack sensors.

I guess more than 3 kites isn't ever happ'ning at the beach, even on perfect days? Awesome :D

Skyway Scott 03-11-2007 07:03 PM

Nice kite. That "matching" board is the true shnizzit though. It's perfect for you.

F@#! u guyz! I showed up, looked and smelled skunk. Wind picked up 10 minutes after I left. 2 skunks and burned on the bluff.

Skyway Scott 03-11-2007 10:04 PM

Gotta have faith. (It was Sunday... c'mon!)

It was blowing pretty good at TI from at least 3:00 to 6:00 on Sun. Probably the best from 4:00 to 5:00. It was enough for me to throw a couple jumps each tack and still hold my place.

You guys have me to thank for the wind...
 
I went to Chipolte in St. Petersburg for lunch on Sunday and farted the whole way home, probably made for some good strong wind!!!

Skyway Scott 03-12-2007 05:47 PM

Yeah, Danny and I were both on big boards, so jumping a lot and holding our ground was easy peezy. I think I went upwind from PaG to the Undertow in about 12 minutes. It was sweet. It was still blowing when I left at around 6, I was just worn out at that point.

I am pretty certain it seabreezed again today 'cuz I tortured myself with a sneak at the camera at 4 pm (white caps).

Donna is gonna hit it tomorrow at PaG or nearby around 3:30 if anyone wants to go out.

toby wilson 03-13-2007 12:23 AM

I'll be there if my 14M Thruster will do the trick!!! Otherwise I am still having to wait for my 16M which I should have sometime soon!

damn moneybags...from now on I will refer to you as Toby "the baller" Wilson.

toby wilson 03-13-2007 10:00 PM

Naw, I am just selling all of the crap in my house (and all of my old kites, a board and harnesses that I don't use anymore) that I don't use on ebay which frees up some cash to get new kites. Anyone need a kayak? How about a Kirby vaccum? A used Movado Watch? See what I mean, you have gotta get creative bro! Desperate times call for desperate measures!

I didn't get out anyway, I had errands to run and right now our biggest kite is Amber's 15M Waroo. It hasn't been flown yet though and I want her to get the first ride on it. My 16M will be here soon enough (as soon as I can afford it), I am just getting my 12M this week which is PERFECT timing, huh? Maybe Friday will be good enough though to ride my 14M...

Skyway Scott 03-14-2007 05:52 AM

I think Friday will be good, maybe a spike starting at 1pm (as usual) from the S/SSW
until 5.
Let's hope for that frontal boundary on Doppler.
I am just hoping for Sat/Sun.
