Today I awoke to the sound of wind. A quick smoothie and a check of the wind meters on Flathead and I was off. When I arrived at the Bigfork launch my truck told me it was only 34 degrees, but the wind was ripping. I put my wet suit on and proceeded to launch the 12 meter Flysurfer Speed 3. I stayed out out for two and a half hours and had a really fun session. It was 12 to 18 mph winds and a nice swell to play on. The Flysurfer is a very fun kite. The hang time is long and the landings are butter soft. The kite also relaunches very well. I think this will be the money kite for me this season. It is very cool to through the kite out on the sand and launch. It is much easier to deal with than the LEIs when you are by yourself. And lets face it, I probably have a few more weeks of solo water kiting. By the end I was getting cold but for the first two hours I was comfortable. I snow kited yesterday 30 miles form where I was water kiting today. You just have to love living in Montana.

Can't wait to see that kite on the water,
