Sat Jan 10, 15 8:13 am The PNW fun kite spots |
|
|
Well, some of them anyways!.. I was fortunate enough to have an amazing kite season driving around with some friends, so I made a video of clips we took while out and about! Some folks are from the Karma Kiting, others from Sauvie Island Kiting, local groups. You can check out some of the great kiting spots we went to over the season that are in driving distance for PNWers. I listed them under the video. The countdown for warm sunny kite days cant end quick enough!
Keep the stoke alive,

Looks like someone is addicted! I'm getting my cold water gear together for an early start this year. Jones is awesome eh? Ive had great eagerly wind there too but Lot D is warmer. You can actually get some good deals to Maui on Kayak if you set an alert and can go midweek. If I didn't have school aged kids I'd be there a couple times a winter, or LaVentana.... |

Of course addicted! Pretty hard to not be, .. The first time I planed on a board I felt it. Always wanting more
I've been to Lot D a few times, but never in season so it always when it was cold as hell & never had the nerve to try it! I might now tho since you mention it. I struggle with my own problems with travel also as I am a college student that also works and sort of strapped for time off/cash that kind of thing. I am partial to Jones tho in all honestly because that is where I had my first lesson and where I spent most of the season feeding my kite junkie needs. Its good tho, I recommend it!
& thanks DP but I'm not brave to bear the cold either! These are all from early September from a GoPro I hadn't touched in a while and found all those gems pf the last few times out with friends. I wish I didn't mind the cold so that wouldn't make it almost 3 months since I flew a kite today.. kinda sucky. Snowboarding just isnt as fun as I remembered it to be. Lol |
