Hi! I had a good experience from Hua Hin 3 years ago in February! I was there for 2 weeks and the wind was constantly on from 16-22 knots. The wind was then NE, but what the locals told then, was that from February on the wind should shift to SE whilst becoming more stable and strong. Then I would p...

If you're lucky, couple dolphines may go along with you :). WOW!! How cool would that be?? :D As we start our trip from southern California, I guess the Huntington beach would be the first potential kite spot for me.. I'll definitely give it a shot.. and my girlfriend is a semi-pro sunbather, so sh...

Yeah man!! It sounds awesome.. especially the "no worries about sharks" -part! :thumb: Thanx for your input guys, I'll start checkig those spots out from kitebeaches.com right away! And michaelt, the cold water sure feels like home :wink: So a shorty or a 3mm suit should do the trick.. normally wear...

Hi there California kiters! I'll be in California coast for three weeks in July with my girlfriend and - of course - I'm really looking forward to having some serious kite sessions there too! We'll be driving more or along the coast between San Francisco and L.A. Surely there are many good spots the...

Esposende is also nice, especially the lagoon side, but it probably gets guite packed during the summer. Che...

and A.J. 12kts and ). . . get outta here!

no, seriously that sounds very lite.. amazing that it works!

Yello! Any experience on new 08 Rippehrs, 9m2 or 10m2? Im considering for a purchase of either 9 or 10 as a kite for winds +20kts to complement my quiver with 13 m2 C-kite (EH Wave). My weight is somewhere around 86kgs and I would be very interested about high and low ends of these sizes. For instan...

Thanx Suc and jrdfox for info!! Im going to stay in Porto at least till June .. maybe and hopefully for the summer as well. So I really look forward to check out the spots u mentioned. Checked already out some spots from the kitebeaches.com - It´s so hard to bhelieve how awesome spots u have...

Olá! I´m coming to Porto next January for half a year for my studies, so I´d have some questions about the local kite scene. First of all, is it possible to go kiting during the winter ("when the wind is shit") season? or do I have to wait until april or something? Secondly, I...
