Started with my 10m and had a few good tacks but then the wind lulled and I decided to come in for the 12m. That was plenty of kite as the wind came back up. It was quite choppy and lots of small flotsam and weed. Riding the Celero was not awesome in those conditions and it slaps so hard in the chop. Having said that there was some nice smooth sections and some nice swell waves but I only got a few opportunities. Nonetheless, the wind was warm and steady and that led to a really good session all in all. Interestingly, there were a lot of kites out today. I counted 14 kites which was kind of amazing as it has usually been 2 to 5 kiters for most of the sessions I have had at Clover this summer.
