2023 02 04 - Wild conditions at Tazpendale

 The session kicked off with Taz getting big air way too close to the beach, landing on the beach and putting his kite into a bush in his neighbours back yard.

Consistently strong wind and big waves made it full of adventures.  Big air and secondary lift, kiteloops, all going on.  Taz, Stu, Mike, Adam and I were all out. 

After a hefty fall the float on my glasses fell off on one side.  After removing the float, toeside on a wave I had a pretty major faceplant.  The glasses cut into my face somehow leaving me with a cut on the bridge of my nose and eyebrow.  It was bleeding a bit, but not too much so I perservered.

Stu and I tried to do a run to Frankston but the angles weren't working.  We got to Chelsea, then jumped all the way back to Taz's place.  Totally wild and fun session, had to have a nap afterwards.  2 hours, 55kms.

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.
