probably should let this thread just die , but one last injection of stoke to keep things moving.
here's how the guys up north in seattle welcome a nice spring session at our fave spot jetty island.
jetty island is pretty much like sauvies, but no current to really screw with ya, just an afternoon thermal to give us enough oomph on a 14m kite.
can't wait for gorge season to hit. looking forward to more sessions in the hood

crazy wind in the city yesterday.
15 to 25 knot forecast was actually gusty over 40 on the lake making for a nice setup with nice big rollers for surf riding.
some shots of yesterday's blow in sea town
whats that board you're riding with the deck pack only in the nikes in the video with the killer kite dog?

hey thanks OG
that's a board I had mike hewlitt build for me. it's same shape as the 2006 glide, but with a bit more rocker. solid wood core board with NSI deck pad, this is my go to for lighter conditions.

it's raining and gloomy here in seattle. sounds like a good opportunity to share with you guys down south some kite action from up here at jetty island.

I'm just a "visitor" now when going up north. was able to catch the naish riders invading jetty island for the day. thanks mike for the demos!
jetty is usally a thermal induced light wind kind of like sauvies, but more of an effort to get there. yesterday the winds cranked to 10m conditions. lots of happy riders around that afternoon. that strutless kite is fun!

Very Nice!
And I like this NWK picture format better than the Seattle forum where all pictures shrink by default without more clicks. _________________ CGKA Member
