I left my work desk early, after much temptation, watching the Dallas camera and seeing 5 kites riding at Cook Street. Got there just before 4 PM and, surprisingly, there were NO kites up and only 2 kites landed, packing up, and leaving at the Cook Street launch. So I set up all alone and, after a couple of double checks, I self-launched and it was totally okay. I was delighted to have all of Cook St. beach to myself for almost an hour until Chris showed up and came onto the water. I had a really good session with a well powered kite and some, kind of lame, gybes and foot changes. It is still hard for me to easily get good turns, after 4 years trying, I guess I am getting too old for it to come easily. Nonetheless, I try.
