i think you lost your mojo.


ha.

actually the wind has been odd the last few times I've been out. lots and lots of gusts .. powered and suddenly underpowered... got a couple nice lofts in the middle of jumps and also went to throw a couple only to have it die out as i'm sending the kite and ... nothing..

bow kites do make it easier to handle .. today would have been brutal for me on a C with how up and down it was..

i did one tack and as i turned and moved the kite across the sky the wind kicked in and it ripped me off my board.. i was near the far shore line and luckily was on soft mucky sand.. i avoided the far shore line the rest of the session scared to have that happen near rocks.

yikes.
