I left work around 4:30 and arrived at LB to see no sign of real good wind. But I recall Craig's forecast calling for stronger wind around dinner time. And I wanted to test the 15 meter Axis (bridal-C kite) anyway. So, I rigged. Exactly 5 p.m., the wind picked up and I was nicely powered for the first hour. The wind was much stronger about 1/2 mile out. At around 6 p.m., the wind picked up further and I was OP. It also got a little more gusty, as expected for north wind. After a few more tack and jumps, I decided to call it a day.
Not bad for mid October. I was there by myself.
