Re: New kite and more dumb questions
Sailing the River is always a humbling experience. Thanks for your advice. It does deserve some beers, I will have some tomorrow, unless the delivery is really delayed. Will leave them under the back of the car, if somebody is around feel free to grab one. Silver Windstar, parked somewhere between the entrance and the carpeted rigging area.K.

Re: New kite and more dumb questions
So I divided up the bottles of beer. Not too many people. Will make sure to bring some next time.
I pumped up and launched my kite even if the wind was a bit on the low side. Got another lesson from our resident teacher, thanks! I inflated my kite in the advanced area and he moved it for me closer to the water. It seems that in spite of my best intentions I still make mistake after mistake :-/
I also grabbed a 142cm Naish Haze from Delta so I am all set equipment wise. Now I can tell for sure that my 12m Cult is white and green. I have a Cabrinha yellow harness, a Liquid Force vest and a black helmet. Ah, also a scared s..tless look on my face. Please feel free to walk up to me and remind me of the beers :-) I doled out the ones I had on me but I will make sure to bring another half dozen next time.
