Wind around here lately hangs at 9MPH Avg. I have not had enough wind to go try the 2nd sesh foiling. I'm surmising I should still wait for the next day when the wind stays above 11 mph?

You can tell I'm Bored out of my Gored!

I find when it's really light, I never really know what's going to happen until I try. Some days, I'll think it's too light, put the kite up anyway, and wind up having a blast because there was more wind up high. Other days I'll think I'm going to be good, but the current cancels out the wind and it just doesn't happen.

Worst case scenario you are swimming back to the beach. If you're bored, I'd say go for it :thumb:
