Back yard was awesome, imagine those at swamp had a blast. Used my Ozone foil style snowkites, started 12M but didn't take long to realize 8M was pleanty and much more fun. Snowboard wo...
Ryan H., Ryan C., and Rob are all out there on Big Muskego now. Hopefully they will post up about conditions. Boxhorn parking g lot is full, snowmobiles, motorcycles, an ice fisherman h...
@Jeff Vkoeberl Thx Jeff, Can't make tomorrow, but hope to play in the dregs of the wind and snow on Monday. Please post whether just snowboard or switchblade would be the weapon of choice 😀
The snow in back yard very good, and a little more coming tonight. Tomorrow is very good north wind. I'm setting day up to wear my old ass out snowkiting tomorrow. Hoping switchbl...
Briefly tried snowkiting this morning, got 5-6 inches of snow yesterday covering lake. However, I wasn't surprised to find snow not really adhered to the ice, so much like riding directly on ...
Looks like good snow finally coming tomorrow, meaning today is a good time to take a look at ice where you mighy kite to note where open/unsafe ice might be. It has been a wierd year with ope...

surprised no one joined you, it was blowing up to 30mph!
That went about as well as it could in these conditions. Really actually a very nice session today. Absolutely lit on the 10, overpowered even at the end. Some ice chunk fields by...
I'm going to hit up the st Francis launch today around 11. I checked it earlier, ice shelf was minimal and only the occasional ice chunk floating around in there. Grant looked similar b...
Sorry, I haven't checked back here to see this! I would be interested in pads, I do use some. I just hit big Muskego this morning with the wing and board. I want to use the kite w...
I was also at the swamp. Good times. I've exactly as Steve described. Ice skates and wing for 30 min and kite and skis for an hour. Ice is hard to ride because snow adds grip then open ice needs re...
Tried the swamp this afternoon. Beautiful afternoon with good wind- enough for 7m, thick ice, but conditions are a bit mixed right now- some smooth patches, some bumpy patches and some small drift...
Jeff - you know where to find it, just say when! But just to be clear, the picture above is Freeskate, below is Skiskate. Skiskates don't bite well with real hard ice when real cold u...
@Jeff Vkoeberl if Jake doesn't take you up on the offer I'd love to borrow the free skate. I have been winging with skates and love it but north of 15 mph gets sketchy on skates. I'd love to...
@Jacob Odders while both truks allow the board to lean, only the front turns. At speed, the back will slide sideways a bit with pressure especially if not sharp. And yes, the front blad...
