North west winds

Post by Toner »

Where is a good place to kite in Nanaimo/parksvile?
I have been to Columba Beach on a south eastern but not NW
With new gear and winds tomorrow, would like to try if anyone else is going out.
Can you Kite at Pipers on the inside of the marker? or I will wait for Nitinat.

I'm heading out today sometime. Call me at home 753-8406. I have a great low-tide spot.

Thanks scott, for meeting me at Orr road and the lanch, nice beach, I forgot the name or the road?
I went in to far, wind fell off, dropped the kite it rolled on the water and the fith line tangled into a huge mess. I will stay out farther next time and plan more time. Still had fun.

The down winder look fun your turns had some great spary from the beach as I walk back.


Aloha Tony
