This is what you all are looking at right now right? Smallest kite I have is a 12m. I know rooster is a little more than the trout most times but am I gonna be screwed if I show up with a 12m? Thanks! Nak Since 19 May 2005 4316 Posts Camas Site Lackey CGKA Member Tue Oct 21, 08 6:07 pm     Hard to say what it will be in the morning, But it can be calm at Troutdale and E @ 30 at RR. Generally an Easterly forecast in the teens at Troutdale means 7m at RR. The Ikitesurf sensor at RR is good for showing trends, but actual wind on the water is a lot higher. Here's a good sensor for showing winds at RR. (The gust factor is usually the steady state wind at the ponds for easterlies.) http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=KWAWASHO9 It says Washougal, but it's really East of the ponds close to Skamania Island Gman Since 11 Feb 2006 4911 Posts Portland Unstrapped Tue Oct 21, 08 6:22 pm     pdxmonkeyboy wrote: Forrest wrote: Got my new Havoc 6m, gonna have to bust that out. you mean Havoc 16m ?

Thanks! i think that you can usually double that airnet forecast pretty safely... maybe you'll get some time in early or late, but it'll be nuked 90% of the day tomorrow, I'd bet. Nak Since 19 May 2005 4316 Posts Camas Site Lackey CGKA Member Tue Oct 21, 08 7:12 pm     It's already E @ 15 or so at the ponds, pressure differential is E @ .04 It's going to be windy tomorrow. I'm heading up by sea at 10 - 11 or so. I'll be stopping wherever the wind is good. Low tide should be about 11, so I might ride the flats. Kataku2k3 Since 14 Aug 2005 3754 Posts PDX-LA Videographer Tue Oct 21, 08 7:42 pm     Windbow looks good. Hoping for some 35-45! Chooch Since 18 Nov 2007 1871 Posts Wicked Pissah Boston Tea Bagger Tue Oct 21, 08 7:58 pm     Should be at BV around 11/12 depending on the wind.

Chooch Since 18 Nov 2007 1871 Posts Wicked Pissah Boston Tea Bagger Tue Oct 21, 08 8:28 pm     You have to kite DW to them, its about 1/2-3/4 mile. Much quicker than hiking there from RR Gman Since 11 Feb 2006 4911 Posts Portland Unstrapped Tue Oct 21, 08 10:23 pm     18 ENE - it is on! may want to bring a small kite too _________________ Go Deep! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eu2pBpQolKE Nak Since 19 May 2005 4316 Posts Camas Site Lackey CGKA Member Tue Oct 21, 08 10:32 pm     Pressure diff is already .09, Corbett gusting to 26...

Hanky time, huh? Don't take any risks if it seems too nukie. Just wait a little and be a little late going to work. You're way more important to us, than "a schedule". _________________ (>====<|>---<        Northwest Kiteboarding -> Gorge / Portland / Oregon Coast All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page Previous  1, 2, 3, 4, 5  Next Page 2 of 5   Jump to: Select a forum Northwest Kiteboarding Discussion Forum----------------Gorge / Portland / Oregon CoastFor SaleLost & FoundIndustry SoapboxCGKA  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum You can attach files in this forum You can download files in this forum
