A few of us did it last year on the sand bar in an east wind. We also used the empty gravel parking lot opposite the event site.

I went to the marina today. texture was real nice and easy to turn in.
even though it's shallow at only a couple of inches, there is soft sand underneath with minimal rocks. great place to play especially in milder winds.
I rode a strapless snow skate for the first time with a kite and loved it.
I'm sure the snow will be good for Saturday to do some more snowkiting in, just a bit more tracked out...sorry!

to original poster, I highly recommend brad for any type of snowkite coaching, hosting and just to watch him. he puts on quite the show on snow.
anyhow here's a couple of shots from today from the marina
