Wind: up and down. Harness strap bungee broke so I had to come in to tighten everything else up and by time I came out the wind went SSE and killed everything. Second attempt was really ESE, great for about an hour. I managed to land quite a few rotations until the wind died to the point where I could not get enough air to complete one. For some reason it seems to be easier doing a double rotation than it is one. Just remember to pull on the forward hand on the way down!
Wade called once I got home and warmed up and bought my kite. Now I am kiteless and a little upset. Im sure that will change when I get a new one I suppose. Have fun with that kite, we have had some good times and some rough times - but shes a lot of fun!
