I'm not even from there, but isn't that wind direction off shore over there.
And generally, wind that comes off the land is gusty and shifty, and therefore crap.

if you cant work it our for yourself I would say you are not ready to kite in it.

It amazes me how many people ask can I kite here on a ............ ( insert wind direction ).

If you cant look at a map and work out wind directions and suitable locations kiting is not for you. A severe lack of common sense abounds with todays kiters....

it's not just kiters mate, just look at ocau forums and how many people ask how should i do this , what should i do , instead of doing something for themselves . Not hard to pullup nearmap and go find something in the metro area that works on a particular wind

"Note to self". Dont ask a kiter in WA for advice as they will just shoot you down
