im going snowkiting for the first time tomorrow!

im pretty excited. We have about 2-3 inches of snow on the ground, and the wind is forcasted to be about 15-20 mph... ive got my old crappy skis, helmet, goggles and various snow gear ready.

did i mention im going between classes?
ill let you guys know how it goes...

Good luck! Sounds like it should be an awesome day to put the Frenzy up. Your luckier then me. Down here in Philly we got half an inch for about an hour..but the winds are ballistic right now. I could feel my car shaking on the way home from work.

How'd it go? A couple of other riders got out yesterday too (or are going out this week) in MA, NH and ME.

Did you say Philly? An hour from me (Wilmington, DE). We should hook up for snowkiting. - Brian

wow it was amazing....

just got back, it was a close race to see which would come first, my class or complete exhaustion... (the legs arent used to this yet)

turns out exhaustion came first, which was good because i got to have lunch

but yeah i had an awesome 2.5 hour session flying around the big field that i kit in (it is like a dozen soccer fields! beautiful for kiting) The wind was about 18-20 mph but pretty gusty. (also, because of the direction of the wind, i was getting a bit of wind shadow from a building)

the frenzy performed beautifully (thanks again gilligan), and i even got a couple of little jumps in (maybe 3-4 feet)

i cant wait for a bit more snow (the grass was poking out) and another windy day!
