Yup, and took quite a beating because of it :lol:

Intentionally been quite overpowered almost all the time on the foil (since I spend so much time water starting) but last night really highlighted how hard it makes it when up and riding. Thinking back, my best runs so far were around the time I couldn't re-launch due to lack of wind. Guess it's time to reduce the kite sizes but it just seems impossible when stood on the beach.

Still light but finally seems to be picking up a bit now..

Stoney · Postby **Stoney** » 10 Jul 2019, 16:18

Neither guage looks convincing but they don't agree and there's more wind here (10 miles inland) than they are saying. Are you able to give an eyeball report Marc?

At Rest now....don't bother it's barely enough to get a kite in the sky right now...and that's up in the carpark!

Will be at Aber tomorrow from 11am
