Default finally, we got some wind.....

....and it was not just a lucky afternoon seabreeze. I guess when all the forecasts have nothing in their predictions, be sure to load your gear!!! All morning, when I was playing volleyball, the gulf had white caps, but the wind was only blowing 10-12. I guess the storms that were way off shore were generating surf, and those were the inshore leftovers. In any case, it was great to have everyone over at Rick's. Couldn't believe that it was July 28th, and the wind was blowing 18-25 all afternoon!!! Rush, Wayner, I loved the 10M Bullaroo. That kite chugs up wind and has great hang time. Let's hope today does the same!!

Hey,
That's sound like a fun day.
Where were you guys riding at exactly?

We were over at Rick's house on the Gulf. His house is next to Pineapple Willie's. Were you one of the two on the C kites a little west of us? From Tampa, right? Rick, Roy, Eric, and I kited upwind to you for a bit, then did a downwinder back to Rick's. It was a beautiful day!! Too bad Sunday didn't do the same!!

What's up Harry?! How was Marathon. Rush said you got your limit on lobsters. We had more wind yesterday too. 15-20 from 4pm until about 615. Eric, Roy, and I kited in flat water close to the house. It was a blast. Roy and I leave for Hawaii on Friday!! Can't wait. Supposed to have some wind there!! Hope to see you soon.
Yeah, I loved the 10M Bularoo.
