New to Comox

Hey All,

New to the Comox Valley and wondering about kite spots. I'm familiar with Goose Spit, but I'm wondering about spots to go when it isn't a SE/E wind direction.

Thanks in advance!
:D

** NEED 9mm Inflate Valve for Prodigy!!**

Hey!

Does anyone have a spare 9mm inflate valve they'd be willing to sell. My 12m is out of service and I'd really love to be out on the water!!

Let me know and thanks in advance!!

I live up the hill overlooking the small houses along westcoast road right before Gordon's beach, I'll definitely have to start riding out there. Consistently good from what I see!

Alternative riding spots

Hey all,

Just curious whether anyone has any experience riding either Witty's Lagoon, Sooke Basin or the Esquimalt Lagoon?? (wind direction allowing and all) Sooke Basin seems decent if you're proficient at self-launching/wet launching nice open bay with minimal traffic, not a ton of tidal action ...
