Default Deciding if it is safe to kite

Up until this week we were fine riding Seabreezes but that is changing. Unsettled weather has been killing our winds for the past 3 days. The mote site will give you an accurate forecast of the tidal changes; you want an outgoing tide the steeper the better.

I wish there was a foolproof way of determining afternoon thunderstorms but alas there is none. become a member on The SRQ website and send a message. You will get several responses from knowledgeable riders at South Lido.

we have a meeting Saturday evening at South Lido at 7PM with food and adult beverages. Come early and try to get a few rides (tides willing) then stick around join the pArty and meet the crew.

Cool I will be there! After great advice I had on this topic regarding the kite size for this summer, I bought a North Rebel 09 10m with a bar (I receive it today), and I found an used Rebel 14m without bar but I will have it next week, so maybe it will not have enough wind this weekend to try my 10m, but for sure I will be at the meeting. Thanks for the information
