Had a great seshion yesterday at Leighton around 3pm. Fully lit on the 7, wind prob 25 - 35 - nice to be powered with some solid slabs rocking through ,
hooked in to a few nice lefts and few nice rights and even landed a few reos
I've checked it many times over the last couple of days hoping that there was enough angle in it to get out. Its been sh!t IMO. I love winter kites, high wind, big surf but the wind has been either too onshore, too mad and waves just dumpy dumpers. Weds maybe?
From the car it looks like a lot of seaweed about...........hate the stuff..............and my shoulder hurts, and its cold....really looked like fun last night though....and I have a nice dry 5 sitting in the garage.

Nuclear wind straight onshore is awesome! You can do downwinders in both directions and easily get back to where you started. Just don't boost too close to shore when that 70knot gust hits.
