I had an awesome session on my 11m bandit! 
Heaps of fun!! Haven't kited for way over month until today!
There looked like there was over 20 kites out at brighton and over 10 at sandgate
oh... and no steamer, you only feel the cold when you stop 
Another great sesh at Brighton today... it was packed for a while there though.
Looks like tomorrow will be the same... see you all there.
I reckon that was the best weekend of weather the brighton has produced since i started kiting. had an absolute ball even though one of my lines snapped on saturday. i borrowed my sisters 10.5cult on sunday and bought an 11m starkite. can't wait till this weekend to take it out.
Allkind the green/yellow/black cult is clintos's but there's two 12.5s the same at brighton. are you a regular?
We did a downwinder from Mudjimba to Yaroomba... epic session broke my bridle though but I still managed to kite back holding one side of the bar to keep it flying straight and pulling the lines in manually to turn. Some epic 8ft-10ft sets coming in.
Luke I have to bring that bar back, its been a month now so I will just give ya $50 for the rental lol...
you guys bite the big one 
here i am in ghey Sydney... no wind no sign of wind EVER!!! why do people kite down here??? just dont get it... the winds soo much better up north 
, good call mate
Oh no... here comes Jism ejaculating all over our kiting forum again.... I would have thought that the self proclaimed lord of the wind would have better things to do than leave his mess over here...
And to the moderator who vanished my last post, presumably for being crude, look up the word "ejaculate" in the dictionary... I am obviously refering to the poster "uttering suddenly" or "exclaiming passionately"
haha. User... not like you to be making a valid point in a purposely provocative way. hahahahahaha nice one.
Oh for f&cks sake!
I guess I have to repeat myself again.... Some points for the rabid hordes intent on painting me as the stereotypical smart-ass kiteboarder out to get himself killed.
1. The original question posed was referring to the temperature and abundance of rain on the aforementioned weekend.
2. Note the quotation marks surrounding the word severe in the original question. This is a literary device often employed to indicate that the author's actual opinion differs from that stated. The fact is that despite the "severe" weather warnings and talk about 30 -35 knot winds, the reality was that it didn't get over 25 knots in Brisbane. I was questioning the "severe" moniker for 20 -25 knot winds and was NEVER going out in 30 -35 knot winds with a 12 metre kite.
3. Always grateful for advice, however advice shouldn't be confused with lecturing/preaching/being a pain in the arse....
ie. Paul1's original response was advice... "I don't recommend you go out in 30 knot winds with a 12"
Telling someone they are an idiot/stupid kiteboarder/newbie obsessed with looking cool etc does not constitute advice... it just makes you a pontificating git and renders you fair game for ridicule.
4. Nice work user, I see what you did there...
