Hey ScottyKeegs,
I will be checking this place soon on the W coast: http://www.kitebeaches.com/beach/mar...tail_park.html http://media.bestkiteboarding.com/vi..._tigertail.wmv I will post a heads up on the forum if anyone interested in joining. Tony [QUOTE=ScottyKeegs;31133]Went out earlier in delray. Wind shifted from NNW to NNE by 1pm. Perfect for riding the swell south down the beach. was blowing around 18 knots, then jumped up to about 25, then died off. Kinda punchy, but good practice for this noob. My 13m wasn't enough at first, then around 2 I was well overpowered. dropped it to the 1st knot, and was good for the rest of the day... 3pm at least. I work nights, so I bail early. I'm normally 1st in, 1st out... reminds me of my accounting class... FIFO. One thing that sucks is that I kept outrunning my kite on the waves. Had a front line wrap around my bar because of it. Thank god I had a buddy to grab the kite. it was sitting on the edge ready to launch bobbing up and down. So where are the the south florida riders? I'm jealous of all the sessions I hear from St Pete and Tampa area:wink: . I have a buddy that lives there and might have to take a road trip soon. I'm sore as hell today, and I'm off to class Cheers Scotty

Hey Guys,
The kitebeaches info is incomplete. I will send something off to Toby to update things. There are a lot of access issues at Tigertail.  More at: http://fksa.org/showthread.php?t=3289 btw, you will likely have a better time, warmer conditions and have to walk less taking a sea taxi out to the Miami Flats in strong enough westerly wind conditions to warrant a road trip Marco.

Yeah rick, we need so get some of the SoFla riders a computer. Friday I counted about 20 kites in the air in Delray. Yesterday when I left there were about 5. People were waiting to the conditions to get steady.
THANKS to "Bear" who gave me an extra batten when I realized mine was broken, and of course I didn't have an extra on me.
