So what do you guys do when there is no wind.

I surf in the mornings and build up merit points with the family for the windy days.

Oh yes and I work to pay the mortgage.

I work on my cataraman and resist the temp to drive down to the
beach every time the wind moves the tree branches around my shed.

I've packed up and gone back to work

A kiting mate is taking up golf...extreme hey?!

I think I will keep fit in time for the first sessions next season!

Snow season over here is compromised by the generally average conditions and it costs an arm and a leg...even more now with the price of fuel.

Chronic masterbating to unpaid porn website sample downloads, stalking ungly people, and random sleasy phone calls with lots of heavy breathing.

Yep its all sunshine

Work

and do jobs at home to get brownee points to go kiting again.

Was violently ill with vomiting every 30min last night. Hands are shaking....... and all I could think about as I leant into the dunny bowl was how long it would be till I can go kiting again.

I know, I know - tooo much information..

Getting bored.
Doing some work around the house (finally in good books with the wife).
Biking along the beach, beaching that the wind is not the right direction, the right strength.....
Maintaining the equipment (little holes stich, getting off the sand from those awkward places...
Getting bored.....
Getting bored.....
Oh gooood summer times, so far away, so far.....
And my bloody holiday in August will be in Kakadu Park and Katherine Gorge, not on a beach....

work on board designs and artwork, write, work, spend time with the girl, play with cars and choppers, think of taking up another sport then quickly decide that is a crap idea, watch autofocus, check the BOM, ring a mate and ask repeatably " do u reckon its windy enough...." take vegas the pug for a walk. drink, drink, and shag shag shag. think of where i should move that actually has wind...
