If I had a skateboard, for sure... BUT I'm sure the water isn't that cold!

That doesn't sound pleasant. Will you be back in commission for Spring snowboarding?
Also that airport parking lot ground boarding is rather unforgiving - call the whaaaaaaambulance. kraemer-Dog shot some video - amusing.
Lots of respect for not braining yourself - need to see how the pros do it- with the east wind it was possible to drop the kite on Marine Drive, the Dock, the fence, some airport or cell antennas, the Marine Sheriff Office, and a few cars in the parking lot.
All in all lots of fun.

If anyone's in the neighborhood, I'll probably show up at the airport with my gear sometime around 6:30.
That place is really well lit at night.
I hope the wind keeps up!
Best wishes Chanson, heal up soon!

Heal up fast Jake! In the meantime if you need someone to drink a beer with ya let me know. (Or if you want something stronger I got a few gallons of liquor on the way back through Cali ). I'm just hanging around and snowboarding for the next little while.

Cool video - thx Jeff that rocks.
Jake will have to get you some drinks and kite porn - heal up. I saw the boat ramp - maybe next time - last time I hit the skate park
you where negative 6 (but still got my Simms board with park riders)
the wind was light 10-15 from the east

| At least you've got a use for your old Turbo bars!!! My B series kites are all rigged up like that too. 20m lines and a 17" for the B3 and a "custom" 10.5 to slow the B2 down a bit.
