when you break your pump trying to pump too fast
How about this for controversy:
You know it is windy when *cough* only the pole boarders and crossbow riders are out!
Only jokes guys...
wen all u need is a board or a board and an extra large singlet then wen wind really kicks in u come in and downsize it to an extra small
1. Windy scarbs -the back of your knees are being stung by sand
2. Really windy scarbs -the back of your ears ar being stung by sand
3. Over the top scarbs
-your kite is buried before you can launch it
- you look for your board but it too is buried.
- you go back to your car and its been stripped back to bare metal
-you dig the wheels out of the new sand dune thats formed and go home [with your lights on]
You've been looking out the window as you type a report in the office and you go back to it to find you've typed 'it's windy' several times at random throughout the page.
You've kited so much you go out in a howler on Sunday and can't even be bothered cos it's too gusty and you've been spoilt for so many days in a row.
Getting fussy.
Perth kicks cape town ass... hold on lets think about it... done some thinking, wa is da place to be
Try something a bit different.
"You know it's NOT windy when..."
The same usual tossers (spacemonkey, poor relative, hunglong, ect) are posting their usual dribble.
Another one for Nialls reply would be.
4. you run your lines out and connect them, then can't find your bar.

... when there is no chop because it has been blown off into spray and spindrift!!!
... when the spray is stinging your face and the biggest kite you can hold is the bar and lines alone with just a couple of knots tied in the ends of the lines for resistance. 
bring it on!!
...when you wake up in Gero at the nats and it's 8 am and thirty knots and the slingshot boys are all whingin' cause their 6m diesels are too big
Classic Gero!!!!
when Jetty's start breaking off inside hillarys marina and yachts are healing on a 45 degree angle
When your heading to you fav place to kite, but your car won't break 50 against the wind.
You know it is windy (or going to be) when.....
a large flock of seabirds hunker down on the sands,
huddled up close together,
heads cranked into the moderate breeze,
feathers fluffed-up and wings tucked in tight.
Tomorrows nature lesson:
How do magnetic ants build nests perfectly orientated to the north when they are totally blind ?
