Am I alone when I say, "Turn on the Heater!"?
This summer was great, but it seemed a bit cooler than last year. _________________ Hey, I'm being hahahahahrassed! |

Hey fellas, I still haven't heard the fat lady sing...I was out on my shorts yesterday with no wetsuit...
I don't think it's that cold yet...Maybe next month, but I think summer is still here...You just have to drive a little farther east to get a little bit more blue sky...
I was out past Arlington yesterday/weekend (Boardman area where mom and pops live), and talk about a nuke fest ....Gusty like a motha Fu**.... And the wind was a little offshore (SW)....After an hour of solo carnage, I said fu** this sh**.... Better safe than sorry...
Point being, until I can see my breath, I think I'll still keep the wetsuit in the trunk...  |

Tony - you are tougher than I am. I was shivering out at Hiver River over the weekend. Its time for me to break out my 4/3. I hope the winds keep blowing - cus the snow hasn't started to pile up on Mount Hood. |

I don't know man...Mexicans are not made for the cold...Just like our salsa - we like it hot...I'm not as macho as you think....I bet I'll still have to break out the 4/3 sooner than expected....Now, if only these clouds would clear...  |

Snowboarders wear a shell and pants in 30 degree air, snow and ice.
And no one is surprised when they are warm.
Kitesufers go into the 52 degree ocean in a wetsuit.
And everyone asks if we are cold?
It's really not a big deal.
We have it good...and wetsuits and rain keep the lame ass fair weather kiter crowds thin.
Love it. |

whats the conditions there thru the fall? Does the wind stay as the temps drop? Is fall/winter/early spring kiting possible?
thanks! _________________ You fill that with Ice Cream and I'll eat it. |

I'd rather kite in the rain than snowboard in the rain, I say bring it on! Although breaking down the gear in the rain at Lyle last weekend wasn't so fun... _________________ Let's go kite. |
