had a great 3 hour session in jupiter on Sunday. well litt on my 16 waroo..

i realized after i had rigged and launched i was more north of stair 10.

just around the bend from the park i saw a number of kites so i rigged there..

after riding for a bit i saw a ton of kites south of the area i was at (Xanadu)...

as there were lots of other riders where i was at, i didnt think i needed to relocate.

I rode back and forth from Xanadu to stair 10 a number of times. Seems like the shore break was much worse at stair 10.

i will say that Jupiter riders have pretty intense conditions compared to the flat/light chop we ride in daily. I have no idea how anyone but a solid intermediate kiter could stand a chance. Where the hell do your beginners start??

took me 4 tried to even get off the beach. never had that happen before. holy crap it was insane. truly felt more like "survival kiting" than anything.

Once i got that hang of it, i had a f**king blast. winds picking up in that later of the day, boosting huge.. fun fun fun..
