Utah Windriders Association

I had an hour of fun at Lincoln last night with 10 or so others. Had the 17M depowered most of the way which worked perfect for me with the small board (137x38) but I am a lightweight. I would have been ok on a 15. Most were on something between a 14 and 17. Wind was light and lightened up at about 8. I tried going back out with the 17 and an SS glide but still had trouble staying up. Billy was making it look easy on a 15M and a glide but that's the difference between very experienced (him) and not very experienced (me). Had a good time though.

My wife took a few pictures. I posted them here:

I struggled on my 11M Instinct to stay planing, however I got a few good reaches in. I need to invest in a bigger kite. Thanks for posting the pics!

Kyrk,

I'm glad you asked and I was able to recommend the 17M. With the lulls earlier in the evening, that was the call. My 14M was good for 1hour but then a lot of work. Thanks for the photos, great views. Whit G
