What a great place Kited in Bahia Salinas most of the time. Here is the write up PKH did right after the trip. http://www.bestkiteboarding.com/site/travel/costaRica.htm You could contact these guys. They might have a wind sensor they use. http://www.kitehouse.com pkh Since 27 Feb 2005 6549 Posts Couve / Hood Honored Founder Tue Mar 04, 08 8:18 am     During their main season (now) its WINDY! Imagine Rooster Rock Easterly conditions all day and night. Make sure you bring a kite at least as small as 6m, maybe even a 5m. You will probably spend the most time on a 7m, and if you are lucky you will have a couple of 9m seshs. The evening sessions are usually the best for lighter winds. The good news about it is you are guaranteed wind, and its a beautiful country. Be safe and talk to the locals! mixfaster Since 27 Jul 2007 4 Posts pdx New Member Tue Mar 04, 08 9:42 am     cool thanks for the links! i go to santa teresa twice a year for surfing but last time i was there in march i saw kites, so i'm going to take a kite or two. i dont think its that windy down south, as it is in the northern parts. hopefully the wind will make its way down to me!!! _________________ jeri pkh Since 27 Feb 2005 6549 Posts Couve / Hood Honored Founder Tue Mar 04, 08 9:49 am     mixfaster wrote: cool thanks for the links! i go to santa teresa twice a year for surfing but last time i was there in march i saw kites, so i'm going to take a kite or two. i dont think its that windy down south, as it is in the northern parts. hopefully the wind will make its way down to me!!! It can get windy, but the predominante wind direction for the whole west coast is offshore, so be mindful of the direction. If you have a chance to go to Bahia Salinas though its pretty sweet. We also kited Lake Arenal which is beautiful, just don't end up downwind in the jungle.        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
