Hi Waydo,

It depends on how far you want to walk

The well experienced parham users (way more than me), usually aim for 0.6mtrs or better.

I have kited on a 0.2mtr tide. I read the tide movement backward and arrived as the place drained down to seaweed and mud farming.....interesting

If you ride a finnless board or skim board you could probably kite on almost any tide.

A couple of the regulars pump up their kites, walk them (inverted) out to the poles sandbar area, then rig and launch.

Just don't get caught by the incoming tide while trying to rig

Cheers
Fossil

Hey there, wasn't too fussed about the whole walking out thing, just seemed like there wasn't too much water for a fair way out even once u get to the edge of the water definitely keen fir a sesh there bout an hours drive from ardrossan but worth it by the sounds of it looks like should be good end of next week as the dodge starts coming in, let me know who's keen I dare say I'll be there regardless
