| Who is that guy? I heard he went sliding down the sand after one of his 2 tricks went wrong.

Where are you guys riding today? Sounds like Sauvies and Jones should fire and the gorge is gonna go late.

| Is the beach in the last pic directly behind where you were shooting pics from, Tom? Looks like a pretty decent/clean area for setup!

Yeah lot's of sand, we parked close to the beach and use the vehicles to block wind for setup and protect from motoring dudes from going over kites/lines.

Depends on the wind really. I've been there when it's windy for 8m and 12m kites and then Thursday I rode the 16m. Keep in mind there's a pretty good current there too. Watch for big ships... they come through at a pretty good click and some of them really play havoc with the wind even when they're way up wind of you.
