Heading to Perth mid September for ten days, going off today’s metro graphs a 16 bow would have been ok down at Melville? Assuming South Westerlies are side/onshore?

I notice at times there’s more wind out at Rottnest is that kitesurfable and were abouts if so?

Am staying close to Pinaroo Pt though .. anyone had any sessions down there lattly?

Is 14 knots common in Perth this time of year? Am willing to kite surf anything above as long as temps not less than 18 degrees. (When you only have had three sessions in since April your not picky unless your a skinny fella and cant handle under 18 degrees )

edit: hell make that anything above a consistant 12 knots!!

Thanks in advance for any input.

Dunno bout wind this month, only been kiting a season, but should start getting regular soon. Pinnaroo is good with mullaloo directly north for average surf, and trigg and scarborough 15 min drive south for decent surf also(for perth that is)
Give us a shout when you get here if you want, sure people will be glad to show you around,
Thanks

Ta again Vishy for the info, i have high expectations - - so hope Perth wont let me down!

Got to hate it, when its a work day after a weekend and its direct crosshore with at least 15 to 17 knot winds (esperance) and no chop - crap crap crap!!!
