Saw 4 kites at Cypress on the way home from work. What a distraction while driving - good thing no one was throwing kiteloops by the road as that would surely cause some accidents. Coming accross Howard Frankland it looked like the wind was real gusty - how was it?

very very gusty...

i do like riding at cypress.. i have not been out there this entire season..

got there and saw 3 kites in air.. wind was all over the place.. rode my 13.. very glad i did.

wind was from 15 to 20 maybe more.. pretty big gaps in between... def would not have been as happy on my 9m.

rode from 3 til about 5.. noticed some very disturbing clouds rolling in and packed up.

couple guys there were just starting out (not good conditions to learn in at all.. but there looked like they were keeping it safe and staying down in the main pool area).. i mentioned the clouds to them and i saw they set their kites down. not sure if a storm rolled thru there or not.. safe thing to do tho.... no fun being caught out in that shit.. and worse if you are inexperienced..

i kited over to the clearwater causeway... mini-downwinder. fun times for sure.

Default Cypress

I may try and ride at Cypress later this afternoon. I have never ridden there before. My office is next to the grand hyatt. Let me know if anyone is heading out there.
