I don't think it dropped below about 30 knots for more than 10 minutes the entire event last year

It was funny watching all the dudes walking the beach with their 9m kites on their backs whilst it was howling at 30-40 knots half the time. I'd suggest bringing a small kite. Being out on the water is the only place to keep the powder like sand out of your eyes.
We were lit on 5's and 7's most of last year Yip yah! I love boosting!

Bring it on!
