Portland, OR next week

Postby HypeTheKite » Thu Aug 27, 2009 9:00 pm

Im heading to Portland next week for work and am going to try to do some kiting at the Gorge. I have a 16m LF and am wondering if it would be worth me packing it on the plane or is the wind too strong to use this kite up there. Would renting a smaller kite be a better option? IF so can you recommend anywhere?

Your 16 might work, in the evening, at Sauvie Island, just outside of Portland, if Portland gets hot weather next week. It will be too big for the Gorge, if the Gorge gets normal wind.

Go to NWKite.com and ask the question for more opinion and advise.
