|
7th April 2004
Kite buggying - boarding: Grovehill Fields Wind Direction: n Wind Stength: 5 - 10 Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Max Speed: Distance Covered:
I finaly got my maiden flight got up quite early as its been too windy this
past couple of days
Took a while to set the kite up not haveing done it before made sure I
started off with too much brake so much that it wouldn't even get off the
ground at first, took some off and I was airborn
It will take a while to get used to flying with four lines but started
getting used to it.
Managed to fold the kite up in the air a few times and fly it too far over
my head.
I got good a spining round when I managed to cross the lines. When I was
practicing take off and landings I landed the kite foil down but managed to
take off in reverse. The wind started to pick up a bit so managed to do
some slides along the field
Great fun!
But im too unfit was absolutely knacked and I still have to go to work
later
