Day 4 of the 2016 season: Sanibel Causeway Sunday - small window for an opportunity

Should this be logged? Barley a half hour with good conditions and then another half hour of marginal conditions.
A 14 and 17 were doing well when I got there.  It felt and looked like my 11 would work.
Rigged up and it looked promising and the first 30 minutes it was good. I was able to make it upwind, toeside was working and some jumps went well.
But after that it filled in with holes and I struggled to stay upwind. So came in and waited for a few with kite in the air, eventually giving up and landing the kite.
Several others came out and rigged some 17 M core kites. Compliments of Roy at Ace Performer. But by then it was lighter yet, they could launch but couldn't stay upwind.
Pulled the plug and headed outta there.

P.S.
Bought a 2014 13M Z kite from eBay this evening.

One of the few tricks I can do - 180 heelside to toeside

Gear:   11 Z
TOW:  230-330
Water Conditions: OBX style 
Weather: Sunny upper 50s - cold by Florida standards
Wind: NW marginal 8-20 mph
Highlights: anxiously getting back on the water, it's been 17 days with a lot of missed opportunities.

Small window of opportunity
