Session 489. Kiting again! A forecast for a good westerly got James, the two Stus and myself down to Aspendale at around 8:30. The wind was good and picked up while I was getting ready so I used my Union 8. The wind was strong but there were some lulls. Really nice to be kitesurfing again in bay surf without booties in the sunshine.
I felt a bit rusty after some time off the water, kiting regularly is a good safety factor.
The wind dropped a bit and my kite started feeling odd and back stalled with high bar pressure so I came in early. Inspecting the kite revealed that it was soft - there appears to be a slow leak.
We had coffee and a chat at the Two Cow Girls cafe after the session.

Westerly wind can be unpredictable, there were some big spikes and rain around noon.
