hehehe... 63knot is a little too much. Did you stand out In the wind just to feel the raw power?

What, is her birthday ALL DAY? Dinner in the evening, what more does she expect?

Actually, I got out today on my 7m for the first time ever - 20 knots gusting to 36 according to the weather webpage. Was a bit hairy at times... small kites are mental!

Love my small kites ,just got me a new 7 m ,had it out once so far in 28-32 can't wait to try it again this weekend grin factor is gonna be off the charts.

Sorry plummet don't mean to rub it in you'll just have to think of an option for the kids as well.

What is it with chicks and their birthdays? I get reminded every day for a month before hers, which is a good thing because mine could come and go and I wouldn't give a sht, hence I suppose I could forget hers. Bloody attention seekers the lot of em'.

Managed to sneak out for a quick sesh. Yep epic 6m condition. 25-35 knots with the off 40+ squall. I wouldn't call it 6m swell. more like 4m. But very solid slabs. So yes very sweet. I obviously didn't get out for as long as I wanted. but none the less any powered 6m session is very worthy indeed.
