A gorgeous day with a bit of wind forecast so off down to Goring for my first time and a bit of exploring the local windsurfing/kitesufing site.
Found a great place at Ferring where there was free parking and a nice grassy area to rig your kite.

There were quite a few kiters out and one or two windsurfers enjoying the light conditions.

After a quick sunbathe with Annie and Sally, it was time to get the kite out.

Upon rigging up, the main bladder valve lacerated across the bend to the outer sleeve so that put an end to that one, shocking build quality once again on the GK kite. Either a new bladder is required or a replacement valve which will be a cheaper option.

Aside from that, it was a good day out at the seaside.
