Looks like the tide will be high enough around 1-2PM. Unfortunately it looks like thats the same time the wind is gonna start dropping :0(

Are you monitoring the Ikitesurf sensors or are you looking at something else?

Thanks man, too bad it died I was looking forward to some exercise!

Me too. Doesn't look like any nukin fronts comin our way any time soon.
The good news is that the gulf dropped 12 degrees to around 60 F.
That means if we get some hot days we'll have a nice seabreeze.
Anyone got a light wind kite they wanna sell? (ie. 15 meter Slingshot REV or equiv.)
