Almost DejaVu all over again. Except different gear. SS Rally 14M and 147 Reyo Twin. Wind came up around 3:00 perfect 14M for me and lasted till 4:30 or so then lightened up, most came in but die hards: Billy B, John G, Don L hung in there getting more rides. Craig has been spot on for DC. Unfortunately we will be on our own after tomorrow, please don't let it be so. My early THANK YOU to Craig for all your efforts to help us get the most out of our addiction.

Interesting, Jon went with a smaller kite today, I went with a larger sail (8.5 vs. 7.0); seems to have worked out for both of us though. Had company at DCIB today in the person of John Freed. Another keeper!
Craig, let me echo what Jon said; you have no idea how much we all appreciate your amazingly accurate forecasts!

Jim,
I very well and should have been on the 14M yesterday. I got anxious and pumped up the 17M and did not want to get out the 14M. Anyway, it's a testimony to the range of todays' BIG kites. I had the 17M about 1/2 depowered. Truth is, the 14 Rally is much more fun to fly than any of the BIG kites. Also the Reyo 147 is a great lighter wind board.
