OK, so you'd think we'd learn by now. The wind was from the South-East; it was raining, and we had to drive through the snow to get there.
Well it was OK actually, just a bit cold and wet, and we had a chance to play with the new GPS's - They work a treat; although conditions meant I only managed 35.7mph :-(
Managed some quite good downwind turns on the Dirtsurfer; and about half an hour powersliding on the mountain board.
Conditions: Wind: 15mph gusting 22mph from South East, moving round to South
Beach: very, very wet, but very flat.
Weather: Very wet. Rained all day.
Nobody much about. No other kites, but one windsurfer.
Highlights:
The wind broke a pole on my beach tent.
Simon's new tent couldn't stand up.
Sand in the kitewing crossbar meant we couldnt get them apart with cold and sandy hands. Solutions: Unscrew the whole bar and fixing. Simple.

Wingsurfing is a new extreme sport that harnesses the power of the wind using a hand-held wing, the Kitewing, while the rider stands on a 2 wheel inline board, the Dirtsurfer.
