Good news, some of the beach areas have gained 20-30 feet more space. Makes it easier launching and landing kites.
Rigged the 13M and the 11M because it was hard to tell the wind speed with the side shore wind direction. Started with the 13M and stuck with it for the entire 2 hours. Mostly in half depowered mode. The riding was nearly perfect steady side shore winds. Hardly any worthwhile waves due to the side shore conditions. Took a trip upwind to Empire Bluff then did the down winder back to the beach in fairly flat conditions, not your usual downwind carving the inside up conditions.
Watched as a storm formed and moved across the lake toward me, eventually blocking out he sun and coming ashore. Thinking it was going rain I came in to take cover, but the stormed fizzled, the wind did drop and that ended my day.
