i was there solo this morning from 5:15 till 8:30...
be extra quiet and respect the people who live there or we could get banned, and youd probably get mugged by the kiters who like that spot because of it....

fyi.. my girlfriend has been working in an acting company with a guy that owns one of those big houses across from Lassing.. he is very involved in the community and says he loves to watch the kiters. i asked him if there ever has been a time that they have been too loud or caused any problems and he said "never".

thats not too say that someone else might have an issue with us.. but i think this can be taken as solid feedback as how we are perceived there, and its positive!

he asked me "how do you do that at night?" hehehe..

Why LP?

Perhaps not as many people will be there as at the Skyway?

I'm not bad at this sport by no means, but as a Junior Member, I try to stay out of the way of other riders that maybe better than myself, which is probably more than less.

How was it this morning, and what does the wind coming over the airport have to do with it being gusty?

Thanks
