2020 10 25 - South Ricketts on a blast

 Took Alexander and Tina with me to Mentone - there were people everywhere !  Ended up at North Ricketts to try and grab some less gusty wind.  James and I got out, it was around 20 for 10 mins then dropped to almost nothing just when Tina and Alexander arrived after walking from Mentone.  Then we were hit with around 30 knots of power, managed to hit up some massive jumps.  Fairly short session as it was hectic and I didn't want to keep them waiting.

2023 10 01 - Seaford - blown off the water

 Headed out with James for the first kite of the daylight savings season.  And what a cracker.  What looked to be a little over 20 knots soon turned out to be quite a bit more.  We put kites up and I was somewhat surprised that James headed straight downwind.  Once I was on the water it was clear that the wind was quite a bit stronger than we thought.  Got some massive massive air, thought about pulling a loop coming down but worried I would end up in the dunes.  After 30 mins it got to the point where I could barely hold the kite down.  James pulled safety so we put kites down happy to have got through the session.
