I forgot the kite-cam so no pics from mondays session.
Waydo77 as far as wind direction for a downwinder, a sideshore/side on is the best bet as it allows you to ride waves with the wind as you go along. Straight onshore means you are heading up and down the beach and is not much fun at wave spots.
Cross offshores can work but it is often gusty, and you need to be prepared to get back to land if anything or everything goes wrong.
For an introduction to downwinders i would recommend trying the grange to kite shop run on a SW, start north of grange jetty and you have a clear run up the coast to get the hang of it without any serious waves or obstacles.
Enjoy
