And it seemed like many got the memo and got to enjoy the day there. Here is a video of yesterday's action https://vimeo.com/131988549 pdxmonkeyboy Since 16 May 2006 6081 Posts forever labled as the retired kiter & motorhead Unicorn Master Sun Jun 28, 15 2:04 am     Pretty dope soundtrack on that one. _________________ Bury me standing cause I won't lay down!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVvAw2VFR4Y&feature=PlayList&p=FB7233C37686AC79&playnext_from=PL&playnext=1&index=34 Sasquatch Since 09 Mar 2005 2060 Posts PNW Bigfoot Sun Jun 28, 15 6:56 pm    Re: Sauvie - Friday June 26 sromano1995 wrote: Sauvie delivered in a big way on Friday...I don't recall ever inflating only a 9m [/url] Yep they don't happen often, but do happen. '06 is the last time I personally experienced a day. Was super lit on my 12m C kite which = a 9m SLE kite today. That particular day I was thinking about pumping up my 8m c kite; 10m would of been perfect. SO COOL you and your son are shredding together!

Barely kept an 11m down, definitely overpowered, and then inverted my kite in the punchy wind. Plenty more to learn. Big thanks to a kiter named Serg, Bryan ( I think..?) and a Jetskier-Don who shuttled more that one of us. Saved me a 45min swim back from the channel. Edit: Just saw the video, duh. THANKS!! @sromano1995 Really appreciate your help and definitely owe you a beer to say the least. sromano1995 Since 22 May 2013 240 Posts Portland Stoked Mon Jun 29, 15 10:10 pm     Raj! Let's do this again...(minus the inversion on the WA side ) Forecast looking decent for tomorrow. Probably not 9m conditions but I am hopeful for a 12m fun session (with a big kite as backup as always). This evening (Monday) turned out much better than I would have expected. Started slow (but very rideable on 15m) and built up to nice 12m conditions. Tomorrow's forecast looks better than todays'. So hopefully it will another great one.

I've committed to surfing shorties today but I'll definitely be back out there this week if it keeps up! sromano1995 Since 22 May 2013 240 Posts Portland Stoked Wed Jul 01, 15 8:37 am     Another fun session with Speedy last night    SpeedyKiter at Sauvie Island.jpg         Northwest Kiteboarding -> Gorge / Portland / Oregon Coast All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Northwest Kiteboarding Discussion Forum----------------Gorge / Portland / Oregon CoastFor SaleLost & FoundIndustry SoapboxCGKA  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum You can attach files in this forum You can download files in this forum
