Hey guys, just coming back from a weekend at lake St Clair campground. Close to singleton.

The wind was blowing and the spot looked so great to kite surf. Lots of space, good launch spots.

Any one know if it is allow to kite there?

(PS: I know there are spots 1h drive on the beach, but just wanted to know about the lake)

Kitesurfing is not a crime

Higher altitude air behaves different to sea level air.

Wind passing over obstacles is all sorts of mixed and washy and sheary and turbulent etc etc and if there is no seabreeze effect can be more thermic ala air moves up and down (hot air hits an object like a row trees then due to its temperature floats up in big bubbles and colder air moves down around these bubbles to fill the void)


So what i often find when kiting inland is ill think sweeeeet!! Whitecaps its onnnn but the cycles are much more inconsistent then coastal. This translates too rideing out in middle lake or river or dam then having wind die or change directions often. Windsurfers are somewhat more suited to inland sailing then kites due to this.

Moral of story is never go ANYWHERE without your gear. You would be amazed how many times ive been at the movies or in coles and everyones so interested in why im wearing a rubber suit with a hook on the front and i get to explain much to theyre delight how awesome unhooking and boots are
