Where to Ride 7/10

[Craig Goudie]

Not much potential out there. Might get a ride at Sulfur PM with
an 8.5. The UL Kite crew might get some dinner rides on huge
Kites, but I don't think it will get all the way to SSB, so look for
it at Lindon.

Tomorrow looks like better potential at Sulfur, but not much else.

In fact, it looks pretty windless for the rest of the week, good for the
firemen.

is lindon launchable? anyone been there this year for kiting? i'm jonsing for a ride.... i've never been to lindon as i thought the beach was wrecked.

Mike,

Lindon should be launchable, but it may be littered with nails and trash. You may want to bring a tarp.

I doubt it will blow at Lindon today. The wind often doesn't fill all the way into the shore on a light wind day. I used to go to the American Fork Boat Harbor on light wind days. It is located upwind about a couple miles from Lindon. However, I doubt the water is low enough yet to launch there. Perhaps in another month.

The wind at Lindon is also more gusty and shifty than the south end of the lake and it is side/onshore.

Provo Boat Harbor might provide huge gear rides right before dark, but it is really late getting going today and it is also light. Probably a bust.

If you are starting to feel desperate, you may want to try some landboarding at Burmester. I think the dried up ponds just south of LPP's may be rideable soon as well. They will be sweet as the surface is soft clay, not particularly fast, but soft for jumping.
