i rode IRB solo on sun around 5-8pm, wind was anywhere from 25-35, occasional gusting to 40 near the end (i know this cause i was occasionally litt on my 9m roo and im 200lbs
), when i finished i just walked over to one of the signs on the beach, wrapped the leash around it and clipped it to the CL, put the kite down on its wing tip and walked over to it.... its that easy....
most people dont know how to do this but you should learn, there is almost always something to tie your CL to.... ive done it on my 13m in about solid 25 as well....
