Well, today is the first official day of the event! Winds are 11-13 from the ENE, not our best, but rideable, buggies heading out now. The crazy part is, by last night, there were already 12 buggies here, a record for a Monday. Probably 15 here now, likely another record. At this rate there should be 30 by the end of the day tomorrow add a few more for Thursday and Friday and we should have a real nice group of buggies making tracks in the sand!

Give the guys a couple days to get some pics and video, will try to update as much as possible. See ya when you get here!

I have been watching the wind forecasts for this week at Wildwood, and I'm planning to arrive Thursday late morning - depending on how NY traffic is...:mad: What are the ideal wind conditions at this location by the way?

I will be on the road early am- see you guys around 1 tomorrow- have not put a kite up since Jibe and Spring Bash before that- jonesing for some tight lines and big airs....

Is that a fire or burning potatoes? Might even be a sky dog kite. Hope someone tells the office before the firemen get here.....lol.

Ideal wind conditions for buggy and board are SE or SSE average wind maybe 12-15 when it's good. When it's real good it's 20+

Take what we get I guess, and we make the absolute best of it...

That's what we do, and if we don't buggy, it's always great to catch up with the gang.
