Session 33 of the 2018 season: Caseville Beach with barely a whiteap


TOB: Over 3 hours logging 45 miles  
Gear:   11M Z1 and 12M Pivot 
Surface conditions:   Nary a whitecap 
Wind:  Generally 17-25 mph from the SW  
Weather:  Sunny, hot near 90 degrees 

Highlights: Traveled to Caseville for some wind and Kitesurfing. Nary a whitecap to be seen but the wind sensor reported SW 17-22 mph. 11M kite should work, rigged it and for the next 3 hours enjoyed the 85 degree air temp, warm water and sunny breezy conditions.
Although the winds were steady and on the low end of the 11M’s range it didn’t hinder the fun factor. Nice flat water behind the jetty, in fact basically flat water everywhere. Logged some serious mileage and enjoyed every second of it. Nice way to end the dismal month of May. 
Demoed a 12M Naish pivot kite and liked it, it’ll probably be my next update.
