Distance Covered:

After the fisherman had buggered off jus after high tide. Went out in the marginal winds and 1 other guy went out who was still learning. Again pretty average session in the light winds. Sometimes, I was overpowered being blown off the water and other times it was just enough.

Went for a big jump when changing tack out at sea and focused on my landing more so than flying the kite so it stalled and fell face down in the water which was a bugger to try and relaunch. The kite then inverted several times and the lines all tangled but luckily I was getting dragged to the shoreline near the pier. A boat came along and brought my board in but just annoying the kite inverted. Brought the kite in and unravelled the mess with the lines.
