    no wind since i picked up my 8.5 blade 4 either. must just be the curse of the new kite - sure it's not just blade related. anyway - i'm off to france in search of wind and waves. catch you in a couple of weeks.

    Bunch of new folk it the shop today asking about local 'clubs' and the like - I pointed them the way of the WindChasers (Tuperee and the rest) and East Lothian Kitesurf club, and also here. So hello if any of you are out there, sign up, introduce yourselves and come out for a fly with us (if we ever get any bloody wind ever again....)

    The wind was a bit wild down at cockenzie this afternoon was around 13-15mph but gusting around 20-25mph, not much fun being dragged around on your ar$e.

    We had some wind today but it was gusty Bartman grabbed the camera and got some footage of me and the buggy. Only the second time i've had it out really so was well pleased at my attempt See the link below.

    Oh and before someone comments......I know I should have had a helmet on it was in the car too. I'll wear it next time

    Not too scruffy at all, especially if the wind was rubbish. But eek don't put your feet down like that! Broken ankles and worse lie down that road!

    Anyone out today?! I finish work at 2.....
