Session 149, Sunday 9 October 2011
Kite: Noise 12
Wind: 18 knots, W
Location: St Kilda
Time: 4:30 to 5:30
Board: Naish Haize twin tip
Did a nice mountain bike ride at Lorne in the morning - with the wind howling offshore as a storms ripped through. Alas, not much wind on the surf beaches as we drove home. Back in Melbourne, the wind picked up later in the day, so I was lucky to sneak in a nice session at St Kilda.
I spent most of my time in the kiddies pool and in the small surf/swell inside the marina. The wind was good. I focused on upwind technique and a few jumps. It wasn't too crowded for a change - there were only about 6 to 10 riders out - and they all knew what they were doing.
One session away from 150! Maybe its time for a big kiteloop . . .
This is an online blog journal of all my kitesurfing activities. I blog and log every kitesurfing session and provide information on skills progression, gear, weather and locations. I am based in Melbourne, Australia where we are blessed with good winds and some wonderful kitesurfing. I also take kitecam photos and video. I also record many sessions with a GPS.
