I probably should have specified for wind - even if you got 100000x more experience than ,e there - how many days you got with really solid wind etc. The overall package in Cumbuco is pretty "%%"!" % good. I love CT, but it is as you say colder (not a big issue when kiting for me). And it is a bit m...

I'm no expert on Cumbuco, but it is definitely not the best. Even so it is better than that I would imagine most days in the wind season. And an area well worth visiting. Easy to find stronger wind further north - using Cumbuco as a base.

Probably the friendliest place I have ever been to.

I only ever had one of those and I just used one of those patches on both sides. No problem. However, it would look nicer using glue. Difficult to tell I guess when a kite rips why it happens, but any reason to believe that glue might create a point that might rub against the kite when packed? Or an...

Released yesterday. It took WHO almost a full year to understand something that was very clear within weeks of PCR-tests being used for detecting Covid-19. But very happy to see that they have now publicly said a positive PCR-test is in itself not proving that you are sick or got a "live" Covid-19 i...

New England Journal of Medicine - Vaccine FAQs https://www.nejm.org/covid-vaccine/faq Some interesting statements there - even I thought they might be slightly too "cautious"? On short-term safety: "Overall, both mRNA vaccines are quite safe — that’s the good news, and it should be the dominant mes...

Exactly. You got hundreds. Case closed.

How about Argentina? They locked down as hard as any. There might be lessons learned from Australia and New Zealand. I don't know. These are two countries that are in many ways separated from the world. You already got very specific procedures in place when it comes to keeping insects, diseases rela...

One quote from the article I full agree with: “There’s been so much talk about all these people dying from Covid … but death is not the only outcome that matters,” said Dr Charlotte Summers I would apply that same logic to general health. From the research paper: "Compared with the general populatio...

Why didn't you pull your chicken loop? I didn't think about it because I have never had to pull it before. You mean you panicked you froze up? No I've never pulled it before. * * * He's lucky he's not dead. Didn't seem like he learned anything either. Haha. Yeah. He might have been a bit more rattl...

Heard a conversation on the radio about government control lining up to requiring full time mask wearing even after Covid. Claimed that only 1 out of 30,000 vaccinated by Pfizer got infected by Covid, so no need to wear a mask after vaccination. Of course, there is a little time before the vaccines...
