Pranburi, Hua Hins latest and greatest Kite Spot
WOW! what a day yesterday, built up and held around 22kts yesterday mid afternoon, the waves were up also and coming in sweet for carving off the lip, small but fun!
Lets hope today is the same, its 11:30 am now and the wind is already here at a steady 15 knots
bring it on!
riding 11am-4pm avg 17 gusts 20.
the sky turns grey, the waves pick up, and the 9’s come out! colder wind is more powerful and 20 cold knots gets you jumping up high and floating a long way. that’s why we go kiting!!
riding 12pm-5pm avg 17.5 gusts 25 kts.
the wind’s back! and the waves too. sunshine, wind and waves. mmmmm!!!…..
Students and Kiteboarders riding 11am-5pm avg 13 gusts 16.
the waves have stopped!
great for my students - they’re progressing quickly through the bodydrags. not so much for riding but i had a 30min play on the 14m.
a bit less today. Finally………a rest! but we still got out on the big kites.
great conditions for my new students.
Kiters on the water 1pm-5pm avg 17 gusts 20.
party time!
it’s the weekend and a bmw club from bangkok came down for the weekend. they had a live band on stage right in front of the kite club. more thai country songs than you could ever wish for!
they were the rockstars on the night, but the next day we were - they were all taking pictures of us playing around in front of the club the next day. felt good!
Kiters out riding 11am-5pm avg 17 gusts 22.
another day on the 9s!
but a nicer day today - started at a sensible time like 10.30 rather than howling at 8am like the last 3 days. waves still big, current still strong in front of the shop but manageable upwind a couple of hundred metres. seems to be an area about a hundred metres out of beautiful fast 2m high rolling waves. they look scary as you get close but never break on you and give you a big push if you get it right.
more of the same tomorrow!
Pranburi Perfect!
