Just got a new kite and so did my mate,needless to say there has been no wind for two weeks.WTF? I have been a good person. I go to work and pay taxes. Give me a fuggin break,aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Puffy, I share your pain. I got a new switchblade last week, and dying to get out on it.
What have we done wrong? Even the 7 day forecast doesn't look either.

Hey Guys,

This is totally normal. In my last 26 years in wind sports I have postulated a theory that explains much of this occurence.

The Amount of windless days is directly proportional to the number of dollars you spend. There is also a multiplier that comes into the equation. When your partner/kids go away for a holiday to visit rellies, the number of windless days is multiplied by a factor of 2.

Consequently, if you win lotto and buy one of every kite size of your choice of kite, several boards, new pants to go over your wetty, a shiny new harness and a new car to gocarry it all to the beach, you will be murdered by the riders in your location as there will be no wind for a year.

Good winds,
