Session 435. Nice kitesurfing in a fading seabreeze at Ricketts late in the afternoon with the lads. Stu S, Grant and Jop (with his son Luca) were there. Luca is up and going like a champ!
My 10m Union kite was going upwind fine and I did some nice jumps. The tide was high so the reefs were not a big issue. The beach is quite narrow and there is a pile of weed washed up on the shore. I was wishing I had my summer booties on but it worked out OK.
I am really enjoying the freedom and exhilaration of being on the water again. A downwinder is tempting, but today was not the day. The wind dropped out after 30 minutes.
