I heard that the wind window was 15-25. outside of this and the race is postponed/delayed/cancelled.
hence why they chose to postpone on the 3rd.
could be wrong though.
race should go on regardless, look at Wedge this wasn't put off and the wind was ****ty.
15knots is plenty, will weed out the skilled riders from the rest,
Looks like it could work, I reckon I'd be on my 17 if I was going to be there though.
I recon its all in the board, as the race wont be held sub 15knots, your better off with a 12-13m and fast board.
If you race at 230pm choose a larger kite - from my experience it is 100% better to be over powered coming into Leightons rather then expecting the wind to pick up as the day goes on...
Last year I made this mistake, and didn't see the cloud come in over gauge roads once I'd been out there around the 30min mark. Needless to say everyone was telling me use your 9m and once that cloud came in a killed the wind I was struggling to stay up wind. Wish I had gone with my gut and just ridden 12m with my 128tt, D'oh. Lesson learnt - you will only be on the water for a few minutes so even if it does pick up your finished and there is someone to catch your kite - go large and go fast
Just quielty I have my money on Saheed (apologies for incorrect spelling) !!!
Bring it home my friend - no pressure - but Hamish and I believe the title is YOURS!!
Puppet on string - you not racing this year either?
I didn't apply but now the day is coming up wish I had lol 
Bags are packed as well. Surfboard and Twin tip, 10.5 and a 16m kite should do the trick. Off to the terminal to drop the gear off.
Stay Casual MO FO's
What kind of entertainment can I expect at Leighton on sunday? I'm considering going out there and having a look but if the wind is blasting... maybe I should just go out kiting myself somewhere else hey 
haha
i am way keen, keep everthing crossed so we might scam another couple of knots on the way over
)
DOH looking worse & worse.
I still have my 17M Speed Flysurfer 
And Yes Kat I am in again
I'm hoping for light calm conditions.
13 to 18kn sub 1m swell and 1.5 m seas. Perfect :-)
Or 25-30kn and 4m swell with 2m seas.
Somehow I reckon light.
What's johnno packing?
No need for an old school kite day, plenty of people dragging them out from the back of the shed in l2l.
Reckon a flysurfer will take it. :)
Sunday: S/SE winds 13/18 knots tending S/SW 20/25 knots during the afternoon.
Seas rising to 2.0m. Swell to 1.0m.
Rising Sea S/SW 20/25 [}:)]
My 2 cents; delay the start until SB really kicks in 3:30-4pm
lets see tomorrow , if its 20-25 knts how many people have packed a small enough kite? i still recond 13-18
some very conflicting reports S Brze 12 knots. Wind guru 13 kn
But I like BOM report below
but I have a feeling it will be a lightish wind day
BOM
Sunday: S/SE winds 13/18 knots tending S/SW 20/25 knots during the afternoon.
Seas rising to 2.0m. Swell to 1.0m.
Monday: S/SE winds 10/15 knots. Winds tending S/SW 15/20 knots during the
afternoon, reaching 20/25 knots offshore.
i think we are all missing the point its not about who's got the biggest one, or is it
Has anyone asked if WAKSA will sent us back to mainland if the wind doesnt arrive. Or we need to purchase tickets! If tomorrow is anything like today we are doomed!
