More snow (but no wind)

Coney Beach 18th December

Woke up to find another dump of the white gold here in South Wales. There was no wind but a nice wave coming in at Rest Bay. Looks like it could be on for tomorrow (Sunday) up the Beacons for a proper snow kite session!

Snow Kiting in S.Wales (again)

What a fantastic day we've had today! Woke up too a total white out here in S.Wales and quickly realised the wind was building too. So once we'd loaded the car and slid most of the way to Rest Bay, Porthcawl we quickly set up our 7m Kites and were on it!

We had two sessions and were joined by our good friend Alun J who was on his 5.5m and still well powered up. It looks like we should have a shit load more snow over the w/end so are hoping to get up the Brecon Beacons (if they open the roads)

More to follow!



Zeeko, upping the game!
