Smile Feed The Wind Gods!

THAT'S IT!


I'm Outta Here!

starting today until somebody around here appeases those who make the wind crank, I'm leavin'! ( at least for two weeks )
Next time you guys hear from me will be from the Gorge where I'll be on my 9m kite everyday. Don't worry , I'll send some pics back to try to motivate
the wind gods to make a visit here too.

In the meantime, a sacrificial board or kite may be in order.

Sounds like you are going to be the sacrifice!

The more you spend on your trip the more wind we will get.

Well, Thurs, Fri and were windy. Our new tri fins rock! Today Sat was easily 9m and 7m kites on call for the sess.
It is so much fun going off on these swells and then turning toeside on them as you crank turn after turn.
Quads are for slashing , these Tri's carve awesome!




There is still plenty wind out there after we got done today!


Maybe a coast trip in the future as well
