06 Jan 2012 - Perfect wind for getting hammered
Location : St Kilda
Kite : 10m Switchblade
Wind: 20-25 knot southerly
Very consistent wind down at St Kilda - great setup for getting out and trying a few of the things that have been on my to do list. Tried a couple of them and got pretty hammered a couple of times, but pulled off a nice 1080 on my preferred side. With consistent wind anything is possible. Landed a forward 360 transition but didn't have enough power in my kite to pull out of it - but an end is in sight for that one. The backwards 720 on the non preferred is still proving to be my nemesis - got caned on that again today. And I have to do some research on riding blind - I can't even transition into it anymore !
