Nice vid! Looks like I'll need a 17m though.

Looks sort of boring.

You don't need a 17m, get a foil.. If warm winds and girls in bikinis and kiting isn't your thing then I'd probably agree it'd sound boring..

Drew,

Was thinking about coming down in a few months. Question is what is the best time for wind in your neck of the woods and should I just bring the big kites (which are a 10m and 12m for me)? Do you kite out of Lido or the inland Bays or does it just depend? I've sailboarded the bays and Siesta but haven't been back since I've picked up kiting.

Thanks,

Maybe we can set up a lesson while I'm down there.

I was hoping there were girls in bikinis in your video. Nice, chill video though. Plus the fish was nice.

Thanks Guys!

Yeah the beaches here all pretty much fair game, but stay away from the public areas and lifeguards. Really just using common sense if there are hundreds of swimmers out at the public beach.. Kite south or north of them

I work and ride mostly up at The Sunshine Skyway as it very nice flat shallow water. If your looking to get out once your here just give me a heads up before you get in. I'll show you the spots and a few lesser known spots that are sure to make you smile Smile Don't worry about bigger kites I have those if we need them. But bring your 12 and 10 forsure

Cheers, Drew
