EAST BEACH fri. - Page 2

Just rode the ION2 14.5 in 5-line mode on Tuesday at east beach. I put down the Atom 15 and picked up my friends 14.5. Here is my observations:

Upwind was phenomenal. Was able to go at least 30% higher
Turns like a 12m
Just starting to jump and found it easy to go up

I am thinking about picking up a 10.5 and 14.5

Good! Another Noob! I won't be the only one! I may ride over to EB this afternoon, or hit some of the barrier islands here in the Dunedin area.

YO E-bone, you should try out the Era 10 or 8. I got to fly the 10 last night, and that kite is the SHIZNIZZZ!!! Very fast, stable, very lofty jumps, and the most important part to you....They come in a lot of very "Pretty" colors!

EB rocked from 8am to 10:30 am. Solid 20 to 25. It seems like the SW sensor was definitely reading low/wrong, at least in comparison to what actually happened at EB. I am thinking that's why so few people were out early.
BigAirAl, Wolfie and me had it all to ourselves for a couple hours, that's rare on a strong south these days.

I was really hoping to demo some stuff, but I can't you can't have it all.

Yeah then I showed up at about 10:30 and as usual it started to die. I did get a good 1.5 hours of riding in though. Pretty day!! I'm going out of town again next week so it should be good again in the middle to end of the week.........
