Some posts in the Sunday thread about monday (today) riding at Rooster.
Thought it deserved it's own thread....
So.... anyone going to try and get some today? I would be game and have some new kites to try out ('07 Liquid Force Havocs and Assault2's) ... just not necessrily into a COLD solo session.
Anyone?? I'd head out from HR if people are going to ride. Even have enough kites for others to try if interested. |

These threads are getting very frustrating to read! I'm stuck out on the road for another week and a half, and you guys are hitting it!  Oh well, I'm glad someone is riding!  Hopefully there will be some easterlies around later in the month. Rooster on the 20th anybody?

Super-nice, 62 degrees and sun, 7m and the skim, felt like spring except for that water - 40.8 degrees at bonneville- brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.. First session in the 4/3, you could really feel it if you are in the water for more than a minute - not recommended - 10 minutes you might be done.
Shay where are "the" pictures. |

Sorry Nak... But I'll give my report as well...
This was the first day of spring session! I have ridden a couple COLD days at the sandbar, HR in the past few weeks, which was winter kiting, but yesterday, with the sun and temps was spring!
I was in the 3/4 as well, and yes.. while the water was chill, you could warm back up pretty quick. By the end of the session and hike out- I was HOT in my suit... a very pleasant surprise.
I got there a bit later than the crew so rigged a 12m LF Assault2 and hit it with the skim. Lit when I started and then milked it until it was done.
Great to get out and ride in the sun! Maybe again today! |
