Anyone kited Liverpool?

I'm looking for info about wind speeds to prepare for, and info on what time of day the wind blows....

Any other local tips welcome as well!

Not sure, best to hit up kiteboarder.co.uk. I've kited south coast of UK, but you're gonna be fairly far north. Not sure of the Sheffield Cable park will be open yet, but that's a good option.

Thanks Forrest. I actually got in touch with a guy who runs the school over there. I was going to post on their forum, but I still haven't been granted access! Smile

Thanks!

Head to Cardiff and the Cornish Coast. Windy and fun towns.

Aberdovey in Wales is a great location. I took a lesson there from the gals at http://www.coastriders.co.uk/

There are lots of great beaches on the West Wales coast, Borth, Barmouth - I used to windsurf these back in the 80's and 90's growing up in UK
