Does San Pareil go off very often this time of year? Or what does it need for wind (thermals, or just storm winds)?
(I haven't been there since I was like 6)

we have a local group of parksvillans who regularly kite San Pareil.
if you are interested in being in the wind alert group, pm me and we'll
hook you up.

Im on a trip up to Francis Lake via Nitinat to explore and party... but really want to try out San P. as it seems to be the best place to mess around in shallow waters

if the wind model holds, I think that SP is going to be a place where people are heading mid island. The tide is out and there will be lots of beach for me to continue my walk of shame...lol
we had a good late evening session and Bucanero was well powered on his 10 tonight...me, I sucked, but what else is new.haha
c everybody there

Anyone who may be interested in doing some car-assisted downwinders at Gordon's tomorrow give me a shout. We're thinking ~5-530ish
The very rough plan: ditch a car down by Otter Point, get a ride to Gordo's. If you stay upwind awesome, if not, you have a couple KM downwinder!
If I don't have to worry about staying upwind I wanna do another strapless session!

I'm also camping out at French beach fri & sat, so if anyone is interested in Gordo's or Renfrew give me a shout!
