McKinley was on and off most of the afternoon. Some big jumps when it was on. Kite wouldnt fly when it shut off.
Back yard ended up being a very good session for us, though had to be patient and wait for it. Fortunately lots to do working on boathouse with cold beverages at my fingertips, was a couple m...
Sheboygan was only got for 2 hours, then shut off.
McKinley is on. Plenty of parking and beach space. It's cold so crowds should stay small. 10m and TT
I think McKinley. Sheboygan likely will work, but lots of clouds so not sure thermal is going to be big. Water is always warmer in Milwaukee too. We'll see.
Thinking wind underperforming right now. Hoping for improvement. Betting Bradford and Grant will be Fathers Day Zoos. Bonnie and I will just go out in back yard if some wind shows...
There are lots of spots, but we are never really sure how windy they will be. Sheboygan is somehow more reliable that so many other spots and we don't know why. you might get lucky, but...
Is there a good spot north of MKE on the big lake for tomorrow (looks like SSE wind)? Anywhere between Bradford and Sheboygan? Thanks in advance
Grant worked well this afternoon. 10m and surfboard was a blast. No wetsuit needed.
Do you still attach a 'brake' like the one on my Chrono?
It's decent JV. You have a few minutes for sure before it starts absorbing much water The big thing is that it relaunches better off the water. In 8 to 10 knots it's almost hopeless to relaunch tu...
I'll bet it didn't last long... I for one spent an hour bobbing like a cork in no wind before I gave up.
Not sure if it will last or not, but the swamp is firing right now.
Jeff, how are Soul light air water relaunch skills progressing? That was always the downside for me... If not relaunched relatively soon, was a swim to get back.
Thanks Noah. You ever try a ram air kite? The Soul is a sweet ride. Only kite I ever flew confident in single digit wind speeds. Takes some getting used to from a tube kite.
I was able to get out for a few rides on the foil. Struggled to keep my 12m nexus up so it was short lived. In search of single or no strut kite for foiling this summer. Anyone have ...
Snuck in a session at about 5:30. Wasn't much wind but foil kite and hydrofoil worked well. Fun day despite wind being wonky. Noah, did Grant pan out?
