Far out brussel sprout, 8am and rotto is 30Kn....

Be careful out there......

Is it still aftermath of that Cyclone?

lookin good for a night kite tonight Pat!!

Unlucky Puppet, you got the even post instead of the odd. Since I have the secret beige, I will outline my master plan for world domination now...

...windy, trees bending outside, can't concentrate on work...

Night kiting, hmmmm. Surely be good wind for it, but the moon doesn't get up for a while tonight, might have to wait until almost midnight to be able to see.

Hey I wonder if Sandgroper can read secret beige. Shhhhh....

Ahh, quiver size. I have three kites of my own, and access to three more of close friends, giving me 7,9,10,12,13 and 16 to choose from.

Friday, 15.00 WDT - daylight saving time...
WAKSA website says it's currently 42km/hr from SSW. By my conversion chart, that equals about 23KNOTS...
Seabreeze graphs show Melville Water @ 30 KNOTS gusting to 35 KNOTS.
Seabreeze graphs show Swanbourne @ 20 KNOTS,gusting to 30 KNOTS...

Farken hell. it's windy...

Sshhhhh - ppl are getting reported.
Nite kiters must secrete away into yonder closets.
Descend under a canopy of darkness.
Launching schemes in the mystic realms of secret beige - only to emerge & disappear like elusive kite-burglars.
Leaving nothing behind but an eerie, slowly fading glow eminating from the bins of the deserted secret nite-kite-site.
The Secret Beige Society of Nite Kiters

i like the sound of that.

by the way i'm at home, with a troubled knee and after unrelated surgery, watching the wind here.
I had to close the curtainsso i couldn't see the trees outside, i watched tv with colinwill78-junior playschool....their story was about wind, and how strong it was, then there was another windy show on and the news has been all about wind bringing down planes and the damn cyclone.
I miss kiting.

enjoy your wind all!!!

Back in action next week!! YAY

most people at Peli point were riding 6m kites this evening, and still getting high and long floaty jumps. Only one dude was riding a 10m Ion 2, he looked like he really knew what he was doing though. V. impressive to see people riding in that wind!

Howling at Peli this arvo...cashed in the kite for the pints after 30mins of fun.

There was one dude at Brighton who alse spent an hour and a half out on a 10m kite this arvo too. He was getting some serious air off the faces. Should have had the WAKSA big air today.

It was an awesome view from the top too

It was rare and awesome to ride Scabs in such fine form. A 6m DNA and a 6' Surfboard, the two sixes,

SICK!

Good winds,

Fook that, I was off upwind at the south beach access. Not quite sharing the same postcode. They are the best waves on the stretch though, just in front of the surf club, worth crowding for.

As for the claims, I'll claim 32 knots, the biggest gust on the Swanbourne station (7.10pm), on my 10m yellow airush lift and 130x41cm board carrying 112kg ballast. Anyone care to dispute?

Sandgroper, if that was you, you should remember which one was me now with the above clues.

As for sleep, the dopamine and alcohol is still too volatile a mix. Kiting tomorrow Safety Bay though, after a half day's work, say lunchtime.

I went woodies on a 9
Far out i kissed the sky.....twice

Hey Kitehard,
just wondering if you used the DNA as it is easy relaunch in the washing machine at scarbs, rather than a flow, lift or reactor or thats the smaller kite you had in the quiver??
