Howdy All!
After being in the UK for the last 6 years I'm coming home next week for 2 months

Its been long time since I was home last and have no real idea about where to kite specifically (No one was doing it when I left).

Dont wanna go pissing locals off etc by not following an local regs.

Anywhere tips from Bunbury to Rockingham (prefer around Mandurah) would be handy...

Also... is there anywhere to landboard?? (I was thinking the salt lakes near Rockingham) Real close to my baggage weight limit for the flight and thinking of leaving it at home.

I'll be on Venoms if you see me sloshing around...

Cheers
Rod

Hey welcome back Rod, I was in a similar situation as yourself having just returned after being away for 4 yrs. Glad I made the decision to return, loving it living back here. It towards the end the seabreeze season so the wind is not as reliable, but if you look at the forecast for next week it looks pretty good.
The further north you go the more reliable the wind.

Here is a link for info on local areas.

Is there anywhere to landboard??

I was thinking about Muddies (South East side of the bypass bridge) but I checked Google earth and it looks like a canal is in there now?


Anyone know how much water is in Lake Walungup? Is it dry??
Theres a land sailing club there...
