Finally after months without wind the weather has turned. My last kite session was sometime close to the fourth of July. I spent the last week watching windalert.com and to my satisfaction 18mph winds were predicted for Saturday. I drove 300 miles to Illinois where my family lives to ride my favorite spot in the midwest.
I woke up to 9mph winds, so I broke out the 12 meter HQ montana for some light wind action. After two hours or so the wind picked up to 18-33mph and my kite was lit! I was by myself for most of the time, but the last 30 minutes or so my wife showed up. She took a few pictures using her phone. I got lofted a few times in the gusty winds, but I had huge smiles across my face.

You don't always need a board to fly!
Timing is everything, even when you don't got it
