Check out the Graph for Gero this morning!!! Up to 85knot NE.

It was a bit gusty though.... I had the 9 meter up and was a little overpowered.

Yeh skwinty saw ya busting around in something like 30 knots yesterday.

Its good to have a 5th line to land your kites in those 85knots gusts.
I recon i would tie it to my board if there was nothing else.
Just had to drop that in

Nate, i got a photo you the other day when you were launching your kite via the "5th" line method. It DOES work, you just need to be prepared.

And he's well connected too, if you know what I mean....(people dissapear and stuff)
I heard he's got a tatoo on the inside of his nostril that reads "your'e dead" so you know that when they start to flare...run.
