I never been to 87 street and collins, where most of the kitesurfers kite in Miami Beach. I bet its awesome.
My friend Jota went from 87 street and collins, did a downwinder, and came to Matheson Hammocks yesturday. Wow, how strong the winds were, and I was completely overpowered with my 13 meter yarga weighing at 160 pounds.
All in all, yesturday was fun, regardless of the disruptive, irregular rains.

I'd say so, I'm 170lbs all geared up and have been flying my 9m 07 Waroo the last few days on a 127 and have been well powered.

Welcome to the forums nwheatstone and kites4food! Riders from waves and flat water, quite a contrast. This has been a nice March for wind in both areas.

Hope you find your board Ken. What got you into kiting and way back in 1998? What sort of gear did you start on?
