It's been a while and I'm wondering if today might work at Bradford. Side shore isn't ideal and it's cold. Ice at big Muskego looked sketchy. Would like to ride if I can.

Doesn't look good to get out in the big pond for a while, temps below freezing for forseeable future and prevailing west winds.... Took equipment out of truck and transitioning to winter in b...
@romie090 Welcome Romie. I didn't catch where you are from, but if you are from Milwaukee area you probably noticed the temps are not what they were in July. Having said that, in a way ...
Launching with wingfoil should be unaffected as I can still use pier probably... Years ago I used to launch kite farther south hiking down cliff parking in front of Sisters of St. Francis. D...
The old beach is being decommissioned and replaced with some native plantings. The new beach is being moved just south in front of the opening in the break wall. Thinking is it's cleane...
Welcome back Dalius! Been a while. There was a discussion last year if you look back for locations, but of course last year really sucked so not a lot happened. Until I check to see wh...
Looks like they've started the decommission process on the beach we use for launching and landing. Might be able to use the beach area to the south where they are moving everything to. ...
Hey, if anyone knows some good snow kiting locations around Milwaukee, please throw some links from Google maps, especially for the westernly winds. I believe some Parks would work on a certain dir...
@Ryan Wickens hey is there any good spots for westwind for snow kiting?
I hit the swamp for a few hours 12-2ish. Was decent, light wind most of the time but was good enough to practice directional board transitions. 14m and a surfboard.
Weather station still not working, but wind south this morning at times certainly near 30mph. Clocking around to west earlier than expected though, and with water level given my only availabl...
Next few days promise some wind and a little variation in direction and temps. Back yard for me, I'll post Muskego winf if my weather system cooperates, been giving me some trouble of late. &...
I rode Bradford yesterday from about 2:45-4:15pm. Started a little soft but the second half of the session was better with some stronger gusts. I retired because I fell a few times as I couldn't se...
Looks like Bradford may be ridable and Sheboygan is coming up. With the east in the wind, Sheboygan could be tough, but if waves stay small it could still work. Anyone planning on getting out?
You should check some of the videos on YouTube Ryan! Strategies vary from 20 minute sleeps every few hours to a couple hours at a time on auto-pilot. They do have very close connections...
Maybe you all know this, but this years Vendee Globe event started a few days ago from France. This around-the-globe race features about 40 sail boats (almost all foil boats) racing around th...
Count me in! Stafford - that is a lot of metal to have in you, hope you still float!! Know what, wind water sports can still be an awesome joy even when you learn to stay closer to the ...
Hello Everyone, I'm new to kiteboarding and have been researching a lot, but I'm a little overwhelmed by the variety of kites, boards, and harnesses available. To help me choose the best beginner ...
