No doubt! All that Meth takes it's toll!

Here's some tips not to agitate the Meth-Heads.

1. Give way to folks on a wave or about to turn down the line. It's not boat racing "STARBOARD" rules in the waves.
2. Don't show up and try to bum rides all day. You can get YOUR car sandy and salty like everyone else.
3. Don't show up with a twin-tip and an 11m as your big kite and complain that the wind sucks.
4. Don't wear steeze and "cuddle-huddle" (mainly a Norby thing)
5. If you're not "down-the-line" kiting yet, don't go to where the best waves are and clog things up. E.G. Go for the Gearhart - Sunset - Iredale stretch which is more convenient anyway.
6. When asking someone to catch your kite, quickly jog up and take it from them. Don't expect them to dig up a bunch of sand and balast it for you. (goes for any location)
7. When participating in down winders - get it together. Nobody wants to wait for you. The best time to get organized and make repairs is when the wind isn't blowing.
8. Pack a cooler. Meth heads are thirsty.


Thumb's Up
