Deapblu Since 23 Jun 2008 27 Posts Portland   Sat Nov 01, 08 9:25 am     I'm up for a little airport action. Looks pretty good at the moment. PDX is reporting ESE winds at 16kts. Joshiebaby Since 14 Oct 2007 569 Posts Vancouver, WA Addicted Sat Nov 01, 08 10:24 am     Anyone try it there? Onsite? Joshiebaby Since 14 Oct 2007 569 Posts Vancouver, WA Addicted Sat Nov 01, 08 11:08 am    Who loves freedom? Who loves freedom? If you love freedom you will go to the airport. Death to disbelievers. (Who else did not take little red ridding hood home last night.) Really though where is spike? See you all at the airport... I hope.

RR is it's antithesis today though! )) Joshiebaby Since 14 Oct 2007 569 Posts Vancouver, WA Addicted Sat Nov 01, 08 3:35 pm     Went to the airport. Once again I learned that that the airport is not good for kiting. Hit up Camas and met Stringer. Holy crap that kid is good. Camas (right in front of the mill) was totally amazing. Then it died. Gman was right. Beware of the clams. They are Commie sympathizers. ryan800 Since 09 Dec 2007 64 Posts Seattle   Sun Nov 02, 08 1:04 am     Rooster didn't die. At all. At least until 4ish. It would have been ok with me if it backed off a little bit or steadied out some... How do you get to this Camas launch? I sometimes try chinook landing when I want a little less wind on easterlies and it basically just sucks there, so a different option would be nice. Joshiebaby Since 14 Oct 2007 569 Posts Vancouver, WA Addicted Sun Nov 02, 08 8:57 am     You just walk down the rocks right out in front of the mill. Basically, off 14 where it opens up and you can see the mountain. You just park on the left side of the road (if you are headed east) dodge traffic and it is a short walk down. It was really shallow out for a long way.usually not that much beach is exposed. pdxmonkeyboy Since 16 May 2006 6081 Posts forever labled as the retired kiter & motorhead Unicorn Master Sun Nov 02, 08 8:41 pm     It still surprises me that people try to kite at the airport. _________________ Bury me standing cause I won't lay down!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVvAw2VFR4Y&feature=PlayList&p=FB7233C37686AC79&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=34        Northwest Kiteboarding -> Gorge / Portland / Oregon Coast All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page 1 of 1   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
