6/12 Lincoln Beach No Blow

[Kenny]

The north wind picked up around noon in the SLC valley and Bluffdale looked promising late in the afternoon. So, I and 7 or 8 other kiters made the migration to Lincoln. The wind looked good on the drive down, but petered out near Lincoln. There must have been too much west in the direction. I am curious if anyone got out at Lindon or SSB. Lincoln was sub-prime all evening. I got someone downwind sloshes after 6 friendly kite slaves helped me launch my SA2 19M. I wish I had a photo. I impressed them with amazingly underpowered reaches. I did get one reach where I planned the whole way with the kite parked. I think that experience would have been amazing for me if it were my first day on the water. I stayed in the water for around 90 minutes, the wind kept teasing me, just below the theshold of rideable. Oh well, at least I worked up an appetite for Del Taco on the ride home.

Kenny rode, we watched. The level of stoke was unmatched!

The one reach he maintained plane was.....well, there is just not words...

I was ripping on my 13 at SSB. You guys should have been there. Just kidding I drowe done to SSB because a saw the west to it like Kenny sad it. I left 7 pm whit no rideing. That was one of those teaser afternoon breeze. I missed you guys. The highest reading on my wind meter was 10 mph. Kenny on his silver arrow would have been a happy guy there.
