Weatherunderground is calling for west 10-20. That is almost always a kiteable forecast this time of the year.

I didn't get out today as I was on baby duty while Katie finishes up some projects for her last class of her degree, but it was 9m, Sunny, and warm... Above the water!

watched kiters from my window at work all day--looked nice. Couldn't leave work 'till 4. Rushed home and tried to find everything: wetsuit, vest, booties--damn, left in Mexico--, kites in car, where's my bar? got there at 5 and it was over. It didn't stop Brave from going out in no wind on a 13. He, by the way, did the nicest reverse launch I have ever seen, and I am going to have to hit him up on how he did it.

We are close. The winter that wasn't may soon be a thing of the past.

It was gorgeous out there! Holy moley... live and learn is my moto. I was so overpowered on my 13m and was only able to stay out for a few tacks...but what a way to enjoy the sun in March!

Way to get it! Wish I could have made it out.

It looks like Saturday is going to go off. Warm sunny skys and a nice looking pressure gradient to boot. Cool

The water is not as cold out at the rock pile.
water is down & no current yet.

It was a short, loner session on the
5.5 and a surfboard sans booties or a hood.
