Thumbs up Rename thread - Alabama Kiting!

Kiting on the AL Gulf coast is awesome. There are 30+ miles of Gulf beaches on the East side of Mobile Bay in Alabama. Really anywhere along there is good for any E->WSW winds, but two mentionable spots with nice wide beaches are east of Perdio Pass and the Gulf Shores State Park pavilion. On the North cold/cool front days, there is one spot which is hands down better than any other...

If you happen to be in town one of these days send me a PM and I'll be happy to give you my contact info. We mostly do downwinders. Goes without saying, but please respect beachgoers and surfers. Alabama is not a kiting destination, but we have lots of fun.

My most used kite is a 16m bow. Let me know if there are any other questions I can answer.
