The beast from the east has delivered on his promise. I AM now here in Wellington.. just incase people think i'm full of shit after my Perth fakie last year.

I've allready spoken to smpl and 4T (viw sms and email/pm) but are there any other Wellie kiters who use this forum? The northerly is getting up today and i'm hankering for a kite... who else is keen? Looks like Waikanae is on for this evo... is everyone heading up that way? Don't worry i'm not as evil as what the jaffas make me out to be and from what i saw yesterday there is PLENTY of space.
eastern beach hates my guts because i did a big crap in my wetsuit whilst out there kiting 6 years ago. That's why i'm the most unpopular kiter in NZ. Beast from da east reprazent mutha f#$$%@ers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Waikanae was brilliant yesterday. 20-25 knots. Dunno what it was like there today, i thought it would have been too windy? please don't tell me i missed 25 knots!! It was off the page here in the city, twice that amount, checked a few more spots out, no polies... WTF??

Before you head up to AKL we need to sesh it up smpl. R U still in for a Lyall Bay sesh tomorrow morning? I'll kite Petone afterwards if others are there so lookin good 4 tomorrow.

oh crap... and i had one freakin good sesh yesterday. Wonder if there was anyone else out there. Oh well looks like i'll have to make up for it tomorrow then. haven't heard anymore from smpl so i'm assumin that the 6am lyall bay sesh isn't a happening thing. but here's hopin for Petone to deliver tomorrow. Any chance that i won't be doin a solo sesh?

i'm up for it today.

lets check wind.co.nz around lunchtime to see if either petone or lyall has the better wind.

i tend to go rather down to lyall bay as i can see it from home and petone is a 20min drive through town and motorway.
the airport is reading 10kn at the mo, but i guess it is more like 5-8kn.
