Football game. Taylor returned a kickoff for a 60 yd TD.

Hope the wind blows big on Sunday so I can fly my "small" kite!

Where to go when there is wind everywhere... hmmm... THE SANDBAR!

hehe, pretty cool despite the wacky southerly wind direction later in the day. love all dat flat water.

I am definitely all about the 23m lines on the Wapoo now... great for unhooked and tricks. Kite flies forward much more, seems to be happier with less sheeting in/out, kind of more like a C kite.

yeah the water must have tasted like dacron because there was a lot of kites in it. The jetski made short work of it though...

Thanks Pete for loading me up with beer, goes good with my waffles this morning! Wink

Got a good session in today. Stevenson's wind meter looks good but I found the wind to have big holes in it.
