Default Visiting oct 21-27

Hi! I am going to travel to Paradise Island for work this weekend. Think it is worth trying to buy a travel bag to bring my kite gear down, or is no wind forecasted? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
P.S. Any one have a lightwind board they are trying to sell?

All the extended forcast I’ve checked out has the wind picking up next week Tuesday 24, but, I wouldn’t put my trust in those extended forcast. So you’re at every kite traveler worse choice , bring your gear and get skunked, leave your gear and 15-20k till ya leave. As far as light wind boards, I have a almost new 04 lightwave 148 I’m selling for $150.

Thanks for the info... Bummer, but I'm thinking maybe I'll still bring the gear and hope for some wind. I don't get a chance to kite down there very often. ~That is if my work schedule gives me time to go out.
I am interested in looking at that board. Fins, straps, and handle?

What's up?? Finally finished my work in Phase III. I have Saturday and Sunday off. If you are going anywhere... any chance I can catch a ride from you? I'm in the Comfort Suites room #346 Matt. Tried to go out at the resort but they had red flags flying and wouldn't let me go out. ...
Would still like to look at the board to buy it.....

The wind is up and like the forecast was calling it's SE so I guess the place to go today is Coral Harbour (I'm sorry Shuman, I know you don't like to ride there.... :lol: ), tomorrow the wind is supposed to swing to NE so I believe Go-slow is tomorrow's spot.

PI for me is a bit far out especially because Coral Harbour is all the other way. Is there anybody who can pick up kitinjax ?? Call me if you are desperate (427 38 68).

Hope to seeyou all out there today

PS: there should be a friend a mine from my little swiss home town today too, be nice with her :wink: :wink: :wink:
