First off, sorry we didn't make it out to the SI cleanup today, but AWESOME work to all of you that did! Looks like you guys got a lot done! Thumb's Up

Today: Headed out east around noon not knowing exactly what to expect, stopped by Lyle and didn't ride there only because we had forgot the pumps back here in Corvallis... Yes, we are retarded! Anyways, kept driving east on SR14 until we saw kites up across the river at the "Not-So-Secret-Spot" so we shot over to there.

As the wind shifted from mellow (15-16m + Glides) to pretty solid (9-13's and small boards), everyone was constantly switching up their kites, but for the most part it was a nice little sesh. Pics aren't great, and I definately need to bring the telephoto out next time... Sorry!

I don't understand, from the photo's it does look like you made it out Question maybe I just misunderstood? Isn't that you in those 2 shots JP?

Yea, we got a little footage, but definately need A LOT more... Then I still haven't decided yet how I want to edit it since we've been shooting stuff for the past several months.
