ill be hitting just south of the sand pumping jetty if anyone wants to join.

yup give flagged areas a wide berth. ive seen many kiters disregard those rules, lifeguards getting pissed. not good, stay at least 50m away from the flagged areas, keep it safe for everyone.

Well it turned out pretty average..... less than 25kts.

Saw a couple learners doing downwinders, not the best idea to be in those conditions when still learning to keep your kite in the air.

Had a nice session in the surf though, sweet 3-4ft rollers nice and grunty.

Had a crack at another downwinder today between spit and main - relatively small surf, 20knts and open spaces - what's not ideal for a noob? This noob was loving it
