Chris M will tell ya about how those winds get when its got a little west in it and coming over the trees..
i was out a ways riding last week and see some guy getting lofted near those trees w/ a bow kite and it took a few people to save him from smashing into a car. i was thinking "what a kook! who gets lofted with a bow?!?!?.. must be another one of those new riders getting ready to ruin it for everyone.." Very much to my surprise it was Chris (a seasoned rider if you dont know him) and it serves as a very real reminder that unexpected stuff can and will happen to everyone.. seasoned riders, bow kiters, etc. definitely use caution when kiting at EB with western winds of any sort.. park closer to the turnabout and keep away from the west tree line.. if it really swings SW you will have to get out past the break to get solid wind. i still prefer backside on SW |
