Going to try Bradford now
Appreciate the insight as always stafford. Will keep an eye on it and hope to head to sheboygan after work. I can stay upwind now but can't be certain I won't dive the kite into the weeds a couple...
Today is a tough decision. If it really turns SSW or S this afternoon, Bradford would work. Sheboygan is more likely, as long as it stays sunny. If it stays SW the swamp is fine, ...
Look like a south coming through later today. Bouncing between going up to sheboygan after work or south metro pier beach in oak creek as its very local to me. Either way should be lookin to get ou...
Bradford works if there is enough east in the mix, South Shore Yacht Club if ther is not enough east. Right now a bit more lightning than I prefer, might just hit my back yard if that s...
Getting desperate. Out in back yard today (8/12) but mostly frustrated. However, Monday looking promising. Given the rain, Milwaukee beaches should be sparsely populated, so somew...
Stafford, hope that worked for you. My back yard looked promising, but only disappointed...
Stafford, Curious where you launch from in Racine? I ended up driving down to Montrose - had a great time but it was a long drive.
Conn, welcome to MKE! I'm from London myself (but have been here for years). Bradford is best on a south wind but can be ridden pretty well on a SE and SSW too. In summer the south end of B...
Thanks Mitchell. I went down to Bradford last week but was very busy with swimmers. Is there other beaches where there's room to launch on?
@Conn O'Farrell To better answer your question though, this map has some spots https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1CRxBEtugob0O9fFYMMHfL784s2o&ll=43.05055599726969%2C-88.06380578490324&a...
Hey I'm new to kiting in the area but have been surfing the area for the past 10+ years. So I know most of the spots and how to read and predict wave forcasts, but am just learning to read and forc...
Hi, Ive just moved to Milwaukee from Ireland. Looking to kite on the lake and learn the spots. Let me know next time anyone is going out. Thanks, Conn.
I wingfoiled Grant Park. Good wind with some heavy surf when I went out, bit eventually wind fell off and goven sea state made for a good workout. Better than sitting around whining I g...
Gonna go check out Racine beach. Milwaukee might work, but the triathalon has the place shut down or full of traffice.
Hey Jeff, The McKinley gravel area is decent. They cut a tree down and beach line is wide. The old crescent sand beach is still majorly under construction. They'll be lucky to be done by winter.
@Jeff Jacobs Powerman - text me next time you are on the big pond and have wind. Looking at WindAlert again convinced me it wasn't wirth the drive. But I have a bigger question: Wh...
