You're welcome, hope it works out for some useable wind. Know more tonight and tomorrow morning.


There is an event tomorrow in St. Pete, competition is limited to registered college students but it might be fun to watch and free ride, wind willing. More at: http://fksa.org/showthread.php?p=38874#post38874

Well, the current forecast is for no useable wind on either coast of central Florida today or even tomorrow. Looked pretty good for Tampa last night but that changed. There still might be wind despite that today or tomorrow but it may be more of a random thing. Keep an an eye on ikitesurf. Sorry, but it happens between stronger fronts here. There is always CKA #5 in St. Pete http://fksa.org/showthread.php?p=38874#post38874 today and tomorrow. They will likely have some interesting stuff going on.

Man I don't know what to say but thanks. I know if I didn't bring gear it would probably be nuking. I'll probably head towards ft. de soto anyway and check out the area for next time. Thanks again for everything, Kev out.

It is pretty sunny and warm down in my area of SE Florida. Wouldn't surprise me to have thermal winds later on today. These are rarely forecast. May have the same thing over in St. Pete. If you're over that way be sure to check out the CKA event. The guys know how to put one on.

Got Some ! I had to postpone the flight until today but it was totally worth it. Got a heads up from a guy in cocoa beach about the 520 slick. I just wanted to say thanks to the folks that were out there showing me the ropes. Thanks to Mike and the guys with slingshot. It was an amazing place to ride and I thoroughly enjoyed watching / riding with you guys while the on coming traffic was honking and stopping to check you locals out. All that butter and the positive energy really made an almost worthless weekend great. I also wanted to wish a speedy recovery to the guy who went through the bushes (I was the guy that helped you out of the wet suit). Hope all is well, ride safe and thanks again. Peace!

Glad you got some quality wind time in before the flight home. How did the guy end up in the bushes? Hope he wasn't too banged up.
