Snowkite Rally ( Swede Lake)

Some friends from Minnesota mentioned this event,
I thought I would pass it along, Saturday was awesome.
Sunday no wind.

The kite scene in Minnesota is really great. Winter and Summer.
So many lakes to choose from, just fickle wind at times.

There was a tow up mishap on Sunday after the event
since there was no wind to run the event.

Ankles are really hard to put back together.
Major bummer.
You don't have to be very high up to do alot of damage.
