Few of us went snowkiting at Jericho. 10cm fresh powder and 15kn wind, on water probably more.

End up a session with kite on tree. Luckily was able to get it back down without damage :D.

Looks like fun - will have to give it a go sometime.

From the looks of the Boundary Bay webcam and wind, there could be opportunity there... (kidding).

And nice project on the pocket foil.

There lots of farm land fields covered with snow around Tsawwassen. But not sure if owners are ok for us to kite. It's private land, don't want to get into trouble.

I looked at this too. Apparently the farm land by 3rd ave / southlands is owned by the city, I couldn’t imagine them being too bothered by us kiting in there.
