Session 51 of the 2019 season: Platte River Kiting in the River Slicks and Epic wave action

12:03 PM on Monday, September 23, 2019
Kiting Platte River Point t and the Platte River. First day of autumn and the fall kite season in Michigan
I’ve SUPed and kayaked on the Platte River before. But kiting in its slicks today was a first.
A near Epic day with chest high, clean waves on the inside and a slicks on the river and the newly formed tidal pool.
Although the pool and river were sketchy with more then one kiter in it.
Overall a fun day with 3 other kiters.
I used my 11M Naish with my TT board.
Carving up waves and carving up the slicks.
Weather was mostly cloudy, mid 60s and winds were 15-30 WNW.
