Will this change launch rules if it stays that way past May 1st?

How long does this normally last? Will this change launch rules if it stays that way past May 1st? the size of the sandbar does not change due to water levels. the amount exposed above waterline does change. this topic is covered ad nausea in other posts (http://nwkite.com/forums/t-28759.html&highlight=) ok to launch from grass as long as sandbar is under water. Normal - there is no normal.... usually it's underwater until June. Past few years snowpack has been high - sandbar underwater until July.        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
