    Cook was good!

    Started on the mutant--interesting board. Switched to the Mako as the wind went up a couple of notches. The Mako was made for my style of riding--nice board.

    Excellent weekend.

    Perfect 13m cruising day. Jens also on 13m Waroo and Snapper on OR 16 Diablo. 13 Waroo definitely has more useable low end than the 16 C kite! A lot of fun in 15 knots.

    Attepted unhooked at the end but I think the 13m is too powerful for that, or my arms are chicken loop weak. :D

    Once again Beautiful 4'-5' swell but wind dropped down a touch after I got out. At least I got a few wicked rides out of it. javascript:emoticon(':roll:')! Can't wait to get rid of the dry suit, everything feels so heavy with it on.

    Maybe the fact I haven't sailed all winter has something to do with it!

Bloody cold in the campsite, passing drizzle fronts all day. Crabfest for supper!!! Thanks, AC!!!!!!!

Sailed down to Trial and back a few times then some speed runs on the insdie. 43.5 km/h max speed and 37km total distance. Fun Times!! :D :D :D

    i was wishing for a kite at first but then it got a little better after 5pm. The lulls allowed me to practice my heli-crash, upwind 270 crash and the basic tack'n'splash. i do think i was close on a grubby though. nice to see all you guys!

    Dunno 'bout the wild freestyle thing unless slogging with a sour face counts. High "Meh" factor. Completed absolutely no tricks today. Downwind Dave was hittin' the grubbies hard and Tom was tossing lots of vulcans along with BWD. Tried RD's 88 L Fanatic and it had me planing in the mid-teens. Impressive. Gotta get me a FSW one day.

    Nice day to get out sailing, too bad the wind wasn't a bit stronger. Light, but not too bad for some freestyle. Some nice haas tacks and vulcan madness from BWD and wild freestyle from Winddoc kept the stoke up. I claimed 2 vulcans and quite a few attempts. Maybe better wind next time.

    Friday PM worth the gas! I was the only one sailing from 5:30 till just before 8. Loads of wind tempted me out at about 7 with smaller gear, was great for two runs then drop a jibe and "uh-oh" and notice no leaves even fluttering on the far shore. Finally started on a puff, went back to the Kona and flew for another half hour or more, still enough to plane through jibes. Made all but two jibes and planed through a bunch. Love Nitinat! 44 km top.

    My first day sailing since last August. And the first time on a Sailworks Retro. It took me a run or two to dial in the harness lines and figure out sailing again but I did makel most of the jibes. It was classic Harrison....cold, fresh water, nice scenery and super flat speed runs behind the breakwater....solid 17 - 18 wind the whole time on flat water. Perfect 8.5. Good to be back.

    Sweet first of the summer session for myself at Nitinat today!!! Had the day off work so decided to make a day trip and it paid-off. Arrived at 1200 saw only a couple of kiters on the water and quickly rigged to join them. Was well powerd on my 10m and the wind almost seemed to die about 1 hour into it but it kicked back up again to end the session on a high note. Can't wait to get back up there :D :D

    2.00 hours Ocean Rodeo Zen 135
    Ocean Rodeo Rise 12m
    A great afternoon to clear out the kiting cobwebs!

    Moderately powered with some light spots.

    Tried lots of back rolls today, made some and stuffed some!

    The 12m Rise was the call today, the low end "pull" made it easy to stay upwind in the light spots.

    The bridal mods definitely made a big difference in turning and over all handling.

    Starting to learn the subtleties of the power settings and bar position, ie. let the kite "breathe", don't oversheet.

    smooth
    0.50 hours Ocean Rodeo Zen 135
    Ocean Rodeo Rise 12m
    A catch as you can kind of day.

    Worked on the bridal mods on the 12m Rise. Thanks, Ross.

    Light wind but the mods definitely made a difference.

    managed to get upwind for a bit, a few jumps and turns but the wind decided to disappear rather abruptly.

    Made it back to the beach though!

    messy chop then sm. waves
    1.50 hours Ocean Rodeo ONE 12m
    Light at first, then a bit stronger later. Choppy water and uninspired kiting for the most part, but good to get out on the water and get some excercise. Used the Mini Mako for the whole session and was very impressed with its upwind ability. Equal to or better than most boards that are much bigger - it makes maximum use of its length and concave.
