Did I miss much today ??
 

I could not focus too much today, I kept looking the palm trees outside. Did I miss a good session ??

I already put my stuff in the car for tomorrow. Anybody is going out ??

BTW I'm leaving Saturday and the forecast is already promising for you guys. I need to stop planning this stupid business trips !!!!

Hope to see you all in the water tomorrow, if not enjoy the windy week end without me.

Good if not great sesh. Powered 14m (you would have be lit on your 16 and underpowered on yer 12m). SUnny, flat and shallow. Stopped at 3pm after crashing twice.

Swiss-heads:
y'day was an ok sesh at CB on my 10. Thats all I sail now.
New 2 kite quiver: 10m Halo for winter and 21m Reactor (still in the bag one month later) for summer.

Today was frigging gusty at BH in ankle deep water(off to the right!) - too gusty for the Halo even. Unsafe.

I was out and handling it but a beginner followed and I made him abort then so did I. Discretion.

The wind was, PERFECT!!! I was on the 16m crossbow
it was gusting up to 25knots and I still had my kite sheeted out,
the power and control was unbelievable, that kite still amazes, I wonder if I can ride that gusting 30knots
that 16m crossbow is diffidently looking like a one kite
quiver.
The only thing that killed my spirit is the water temperature, it was
Freeeeezing, my muscles was all tight and teeth was chattering I
To get out of it, despite the perfect wind, it wasn’t fun battling the cold
It was sweet and sour cause I called in sick for work and only kite for a few hours :( .
So I tested the C Bow in 20knots, now 25knots next gusting 30knots :)

Watch out for the two swiss riders !! We are back on Sunday....straight from the plane to the water !!

Great swell building today.
Definitely have to get our kitesurf on Sunday- 18 to 24 kts NNW

Hey! Hey!!! I’m working Sunday stop with all the Kite talk
Makes me want to call in sick again, speaking of sick
Cough! Cough!. I’m starting to feel one of those
Sunday morning bug coming on
:twisted:

sunday looking good
 

wind is west at the moment looks like a goodmans secion in the arvo.
aj

It's 5am Sunday and i'm getting ready for work, but can't seem to stop going out side to look at the trees dance, it's like they are teasing. Seems like the wind is calling out to me, Ride man!ride! DAMN!!!!!!
you guys better have a awful time today, then i'll feel better :lol: :lol:

DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME
 

HEY PRAYFAWIND, YOU COMMENT ABOUT DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME GOT ME WONDERING ABOUT WHEN IT ACTUALLY IS THIS YEAR IN THE USA ANYWAY (FIRST SUNDAY OF APRIL) AND I SEE THAT STARTING NEXT YEAR USA IS STARTING IT A MONTH EARLIER AND ENDING A WEEK LATER, MAYBE BAHAMAS WILL DO THE SAME? SO HANG IN THERE.

500EPILOT! it's April 2 the first Sunday indeed, that's a good idea to start a month earlier cause by March we already starting to see its affect.

well for once mateo did not miss much
 

whyle I was standing on the beach contenplating on going trying to justify poss going out in between rain bands in a noth wester, that crazy italian swiss banker got me to launch him.
with roger gone mateo has picked up where his buddy left off.
killer lofty airs in 25+kts.
he lasted for about 1/2 an hour before the wind started to spike and then came in.
well done mate , kind of glad I did't go out my ,better judgment said live to ride another day.
there is no way shuman would of been able to ride his 16m cb in that wind . but I know he would of tryed.(mabe it's good that shuman is working, that way he can live to ride another day).
anyways that is sundays report.
this up and coming week looks prity good I hope shuman boss dosent log on to this forum.
aj

Sounds like Matteo had a blast, I wish I was there I was indeed
going to try and ride, boy! wouldn’t it be something
If I could ride that 16 C bow in 25+ knots. It really sucks for real
This week is looking good and my only 2 days off are Mon and Tues and
As it stands now, this should be my last year here, in the Bahamas,
I’m getting Married in Jan 07 and moving to Boston, I’m missing killer kite boarding days, makes me wonder if I’m wasting my last months working
At Atlantis and should be begging Mocean for a kite instructor job ;-) . I’m
truly hoping that I can make up for lost days during the day light saving times.

Shup, where were you today ?? Didn't miss much at Goodman's today, too on&off and when I got there the party was over !!

I fell asleep, i'm glad i did judging from what you said the conditions was.

well another 1 bites the dust
 

the wind was 16 to 18kts today (love at first sight) I was out riding with Laz and dawn off moter yacht Camile (huricane hole marina)
and that crazy pom decided to start learning trasition airs whyle the tide was going out.
I think you guys know what happend next.
broke his leg just above the ankel.
I had a nice time carting him in over my sholder from 300 yards out.
I thought if forset gump could lug old buba out before the nahpalm hit I could lug out that crazy pom before he went into shock.
anyways I will keep you all posted on his recovery.
aj
Laz had surgery last night had to get a plate and some pins put in.
the good news is his wife recons by the time he recovers she will be rippen it up and he will be the kite caddy.6 week with a cast on and 6 months before he can ride again.
that sux.

went out today too, at Sandy Port beach (didn't feel like driving anywhere else). I was out with 16m and fairly powered up....but I already miss the Blue Hill flat water !!

It looks like we'll have few days of calm.......I hope before the storm !!!

looks like it's clocking backwards , this morning it was e n e and now in the arvo it's N man I want to ride at blue hill .
no water at blue hill untill late this arvo.
