Yep. It is almost always zero (or close) from the East before a good seabreeze. I wouldn't post on here if I didn't think it was gonna blow, Bob 8)

It went from ZERO to 15 knots in all of 3 minutes at PaG around 4pm or so. You could see it coming in, so we rigged the 14m TD in zero knots. 10 minutes later, Donna was litt up on the Turbo Diesel in 15 knots.

It built to solid 18-22 for 2 hours. It was sweet.
I got to ride the 14m TD for a little more than an hour. Nice kite. Donna was actually holding on to the same kite for about a half hour, then decided it was too big. But, just the fact that she could ride it in that wind (18 ) is testament to the bow kite's range.

That thing jumps to the MOON... unreal. Upwind machine as well. I guess all the bows are this way, I am definitely not partial to any one brand. Its just unreal how high they go upwind, and how high they jump! :P
