| Details | Well that didn't go how I had hoped. First time on my new to me 14.5 A-Series Flite and it was awesome. However, I was not so awesome and neither was the wind or ebb current. As has happened to be me a few times before when I am just starting a session and not yet in the groove, I come off the board on my first gybe and somehow it gets way upwind of me. So a long body-drag session with the current not helping at all and FINALLY I got back to the board. I am now way down wind and decide to try to come a shore to rest a bit and walk upwind and try again. But as I got close to shore the wind shut off and the kite fell from the sky. I was in chest deep water so I gathered everything up and was, happily, able to walk to shore in the shallow water. The hazards of low wind kiting. Big thanks to j_dog who helped me pack up and was good company on the longest walk of shame I have ever done. [from Sailing Log on Tuesday March 28, 2023] |
