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?
No wind at McKinley. The rain killed the wind on shore. It's out there about 150 yards but dead on the beach. Going to hang around for about 30 more.
Headed to foil grant park beach. If wind is weird on the beach I may be convinced to bradford/mckinley
I may head down if the windmeter can get to 17mph. Right now it's only saying 13mph at the wind station at the end of the pier.
Wind is a bit light on shore. White caps out about 200 yards. Have a few work calls to wrap up then going to try. Feels like hydrofoil only right now.
South wind looking good for Bradford late afternoon.
Wind was WNW arount noon, but NW-NNW by 2:30, in case you were windering Ryan.
