I found a nice model for RASP modelling.

I wish I could sail at 120m Above Ground Level, haha.

It's certainly pretty, and seems optimistic for tomorrow around 12. Lets hope it's right.

Hey Scott - this is very fascinating. I put the RASP link under "West Coast". Maybe we can use it to find peak wind periods. Otherwise, I'll need to add 100m extensions to my kite.

RASP was pretty close to yesterday's (Friday's) actuals at Boundary Bay - it's in km/h not knots. RASP only forecasts the next day but I think I'll try it again for the next Boundary Bay session.
