Default Just stating the obvious

Hopefully Ernesto wont hit us direct.. but im sure we are going to get some wind and many of us will be out enjoying it.

Just want to remind everyone to please be careful.. last storm (Alberto) that came through we had to see one of our own get pulled into a vehicle and and get pretty beat up.

The beaches are slippery.

The winds will be gusty and inconsistent.

People on shore.. PLEASE watch out for those launching and landing and make every effort to help when you can.

Those on the water coming in.. get someone's attention on land BEFORE you come in so they can catch your kite on the waters edge.

Secure your gear onshore and park your vehicles as far away from the water as possible.

and ... New riders... if you are looking a little shakey.. do not take offense when someone asks you to put your kite down. no room for ego in these conditions. myself included. this is a great time to show the world that you understand your limitations.
