Ditto,
Altona is a nice and generally clean beach the council does put a bit of effort into cleaning it,
This could happen/ does happen at any beach as they can float with the tide
It was mostly a word of warning to keep an eye out and if any kiters see them to pick them up safely and dispose of them appropriately so children and other beach goers don't stumble upon them...
The only reason I brought up the thread is that it is a more common occurance at st kilda, and very rare at altona.
(We kiters also have bit of an inside joke with things whether it was dogs, power lines, stingrays, sea urchents ect ) basically why it should be avoided by those on the other side of the bridge. But everyone is more then welcome :) just play by the rules and be safe
