Hey man what's it been like in Wanganui lately? In Auckland NW winds of 45kph are forecast for tomorrow and I feel allmost well enough to get me some... Other than that it's been pretty windless as of late, but at least that cold has sorta gone away for the time being, still only about 14 degrees though. I can't stand those wasted days. The thought of all that wind going to waste just sickens me and another real cold southerly is forecast pretty soon, hope I'm ready for it....

Good winds to ya all.....

looks like the 'kitegripe' is a universal side effect of a severe lack of wind, thanx for the support fellas......

Personally It's looking like I'm actually gonna get a fix tomorrow, so rest assured I'm going to cain the life out of it and kite all day till it gets dark - or I pass out - whichever comes 1st...

Hope you all get a fix soon :thumb:

Dont worry, we're East coast, should last most of the day before the thunder & lightening set in (I hope!)

Just finished doing a job for Coca Cola xmas promo (featuring santa on a stocking holding a botle of coke - nice!) and I thought, poor guy never seems to get out during the summer, so I thought I'd raise his profile a bit....like.... :)

Down here Santa only comes out during the summer, and with that that red suit on he get's pretty darn hot.

As for me being wind starved.... nah I'm just drowning in my own filth. Wind again today but too sick to get it.... don't have a shocker session up there in the UK, that tends to happen when you go out in Thunderstorms.
