wind all week yeewww

wind all week yeewww

The Mako King, Flysurfer Speed combination saved my bacon. The wind was falling below 6 m/s when i arrived. It seemed that the wind came back to about 7m/s and I was really well lit up on the Speed. I let Richard use the kite and my board for about an hour because his gear couldn't hack it.

Fun, fun, fun. Got me surfy board out for a good moister session and finished up with my mini with new screws in the fins. Works much better that way. The swell was so much fun. Great company, JL, Joe, Speedy, Rocdoc and Juandesooka. What looked like a lawn mowing session turned into a very steady overcast day. NICE

Downwinder straight to the Event location of the Kitesurf Trophy 2012 in Holnis.

rainy day an was cruising all alone.

High tide on seafront, some lovely sizeable waves and good clean wind. Quality session although still not summer suit weather!

Kitesurf-Trophy Germany at our homespot!

Eerste sessie met de 11 m , high end van de 11 m getest stoten van 25 knopen, lekkere sessie.

Wahooo short lines and fun swell. Chaceing jimmy, Arturo and pasta out there. Still only have one kite so plan "b" was to use Robby's bar and hang on for dear life.

Lowtide on duckpond, made the most of the thin strip of flat water left after the tides gone out.s

Blast away the cobwebs with an after work session. Great to get one in, and in nice sunshine too. No real waves to speak of, so good to be on the Mako and eat up the chop. Wind died after an hour though, boo.

Great riding the point with some swell. Not breking until the inner reef on most sets but still fun riding them in. The 12 Razor was sweet. Just me in this spot.

Coastal chop with the perfect board

Best strapless day (after the previous day) by quite a margin

Bonus sea breeze seafront session. Sun and summer suit as well!

Good wave ridding with a nice wind. It did start to fade half way through but I stuck with the 10M and it did well, only tough getting through the long shore current on the way back out. Water pretty warm for this time of year. Good to see more OR kites on the water now.

Fun day, a bit chilly.  Wind picked up and the depowered 12 could have been changed to an 8m.  Practiced some toeside runs.

Cold, gusty day for a ride.

Very gusty - but my Rise is super smooth að behaved very well even if almost fully depowered.

First liquid session of the year. FELT SO DAMN GOOD! Too lazy to pump a 10m/7m as wind ramped up, besides I wanted airtime. lol

One of the best wave sessions of the year! Double overhead, clean faces, and organized. Must have got a dozen or more bottom turns on the same wave! Looks like The Range is working well this year. Awesome.

not much wind :-(

Firts ride on water in Lithuania 2012.

Pretty sick waves in the 6ft. range! A lot of wind trash waves and water current coming from 3 directions, but ....better than being at work!

Good freestyle session on 12m really stable through jumps, kite stays put

Really gusty to start off, need the king to keep afloat in those big 2 second lulls. It was awesome to have waves on the lake again. Surfed it up for about 2 hours. The it steadied out a bit (i use that term loosley) and took out my dads 134 armada. It actually delt with the chop/wavs pretty well. Great big wind day, first time every flying a 6m. Loosing 50lbs really allows you to use maller kites

Wahoooo who knew my honey could be so generous and let me use his board And yes, I tightened all the screws on his board, too bad i didnt do the same to mine yesterday. A wee bit, well a whole lot overpowered on the 8 meter :shock: Tried to do some shopping at OR but they were having a "board meeting". Hmmm was that shop speak for "we're going kiting"? :oops: and dang I missed kiting with Sandy Beach! We are gonna have to coordinate girly!

Absolutely massive wind... over 40 at times for sure. Thankfully I borrowed a 5m or I would not have goten out!

Ouy carumba had to resort to my grandmas hanky! Borrowed a 6 meter rise as the smallest kite I have is an 8 meter razor (hmmm note to self go shopping for smaller kites!). Totally lit and totally fun until my fin lost a screw and I was tripping over the front of my board! Another note to self, check your gear before going out! :oops:

Great sunny session, flat water on 12m and then the wind picked up so switched to the 9m.

Very challenging conditions with 3.5m swell and winds to 37knots. :-O Squalls were coming through and pelting the few die hards who were out. No one hurt and no damaged gear so it's all good.

Another day in Paradise ! Perfect conditions , both flat and chop at the same location.

A sweet flatwater session in great steady NW winds. Sun shining and temperatures getting better !

It was another all OR day with kite, board and drysuit. The weather was perfect and there were 30 kites on the water. Good smooth water inside the sand bar and light surf outside.

cant wait to try my new mako king on waves. water became warmer and massive gusts, but it was fun. sun and people and all.

Almost feels like summer, or at least spring! Great way to start the weekend!

Boogied home from work and got a very nice mini session. Pasta passed the baton. He came in as I went out. Just me on the water watching the sun go down. Missed speedy et al :(- maybe tomorrow?

gusty, but better than nothing

Really good wind for June Lake. Great to be getting some air on the home lake. Another Sierra Wave to finish off the night. The water is losing it's bite, but I could not do two hours in a wetsuit, no way!

yeay wind at last first session in ages

Razor is perfect kite for me, right after Cypher.

Chunky waves dying wind, not ideal never mind
