Hopefully will get out of my lazy ass and stop reading into SJW stuff/cancel culture things and redo a database on El Nino/La Nina and Neutral from 2004 to 2020 instead. (Pretty sure can do this first part in 2-3hours max) *** For Nitinaht Lake I would compare vs session logs June/July/Aug of each y...

Tempy, I was bored sometimes in 2013 and also wanted to figure out, what does it means for Van Island in regard to chance of wind if we under La Nina / El Nino, or neutral. So double checked the history of 8 years (2004-2012) on which months were La Nina: Red , El Nino: Blue and Neutral: Black. (It ...

IMO no need to worry at all if there is already 1 or 2 kiter on the water. Especially on week end or after work week days. Yesterday there was 2 group of women sun bathing near launch area. If there was not another kiter present I would have asked them if they stay longer, and explaining the situati...

Cook St "Thieves" on the lookout
I might be wrong on this, but I think that there are homeless people looking to score value items / are on the look out at cook st. -If you are by yourself kiting at cook st, maybe just bring 1 kite and 1 board , and do not leave your car keys in your kite bag (keys might be safer on top, just be di...

Launch at cook st on the beach instead, way safer :) As for testing some jump/air: With your 17m when wind is S, SSE and there is a lot of updraft go near shore slowly and bring bar in. As long as you are not going fast and load like a regular jump, you should go up, like a ladder, and go down upwin...

Amir, I called you back, but on your return call you left me a message saying you could not understand a word of what I was trying to say. I called back and you didn't call back. (you didn't seem to know it was Teabag, was calling you saying I brought the door last weekend for you to ride it) Anyway...

I think we might have been to harsh on the newbies, 3 summers at Nitinaht and still nervous to go kite Cook street... (has to do with warning beggineer that cook street is for too advanced than what it is???) You just have to be carefull for the launch, ask around. As for the reefs, they are pretty ...
