Alameda

went kiting at Alameda after work today. The tide was the lowest I had ever seen, which made it feel a little like launching at third ave (always in danger of getting pulled across the mud). The conditions were challenging for me, and I seem to have greatly lost my upwind capabilities -- I was fighting hard just to keep ground. I felt overpowered on my switchblade 12, but it doesn't really seem like I should have been having looked at the wind graph (avg 18, gusting to 24). Hmmm. Next time I'm going to steal Chloe's kite, I think.
