Session 22 of the 2020 season: Pere Marquette Harbor Kite Session

1:35 PM on Sunday, July 26, 2020
Kitesurfing Pere Marquette Harbor
Solid 13M session with John, Vlad, Andy, about 30 other kiters and 1000s of beach goers.
Launched from the south side and kited downwind to the harbor slicks. (Should of launched from the north side of the harbor with south winds).
Waves bouncing off of break-wall created voodoo chop in the open waters, so that’s why I played in the harbor all day. Not a wave day on the south side, just as well the slicks were like glass and boosts were phenomenal.
1000s of people on the beach created a launch hazards.
Sunny, hot 85 degrees with south winds 12-20 mph.
