I recently had 5 days of kiting in Biscayne Bay, Tampa Bay and the keys. Every place I kited had the same conditions: A sandbar 1/4 to 1/2 mile offshore with onshore wind that made for really flat water with mile long reaches. Check video from my day at Matheson Hammock Park on Biscayne Bay https://photos.app.goo.gl/YLUSxR7UkdRCuC3J7

Advise you chickenloop to bouy farthest from shore. Near bouy is not as well anchored, you could end up chasing your kite. Probably catch it unless its really windy 🙂 There are no carabiners on the bouys, bring your own.

Good point about the snow probability. I have a cousin that is interested in getting a kitewing, let me know if there are any for sale that you know of.
Borntoloop replied to the topic More Dumb Ideas Around Seneca in the forum General Windsports Discussion 7 years ago

I read a review of municipal waste incineration that basically said more air pollutants like dioxin would be released due to the high plastic content of garbage. So until we can give up our love of plastic packaging this does seem like a stupid idea.

Installed main buoy Labor Day and setting out to put in 2nd buoy today. Use at your own risk, you need advanced kite skills to solo launch on the pond. The buoy closest to shore is the weaker anchor and meant for attaching your kite. Unwrap your bar and anchor to much sturdier main buoy. Buoys are green and located NE corner of the pond. There may…[Read more]

Update: Our order was rejected so waiting for Ken to get back from Labor day dealer meeting to see what is available for light air windsurf foiling. Going nuts waiting for my new electric ride and foil gear.

Just a heads up to interested people. I have the Naish Hover 122 board and Thrust foil ordered from Ken at Baycreek Paddles. He has ordered the crossover foil setup so we should have a couple versions windsurf foiling to check out fairly soon. I am really excited by the concept and would love to share time on this new aspect of a sport that I…[Read more]

Best Waroo 5 strut kite is a good first kite for a beginner on a budget. No one pump and long bridles are a pain but this kite is in great condition for a 2007 kite because it sat unused for many years.

The liquid Force NRG is a 4 strut kite with one pump inflation. It is designed for aggressive riders that want to boost big. It is a powerful kite that needs a strong rider a lot younger than me. Kite has only been used ~5times.
$350

Nice post Kinger. Jim was a constant presence welcoming us to his turf for a lot of years at Seneca.
Borntoloop started the topic New kite self launch bouys at NE end of Long pond in the forum General Windsports Discussion 8 years, 7 months ago

Though I have tried to launch more than 5 times off buoys at Long Pond without success, I have installed 2 buoys for the summer to increase my chances. One is a 3′ dog anchor with a triangular head for anchoring your kite while you un roll your lines to attach your bar the other buoy. It is 5′ long and very solidly anchored with a round head…[Read more]
