Hi

Anyone kited in Kenya between June and October?

Have read on website suggesting 18 to 25 knots - but am then hearing from 2nd hand sources that the wind is a lot lighter than that. Trying to findout what is accurate

Thanks

Not sure if it shows up on yours cause they gave me some special version forever ago cause i helped them make it but yeah

Id ignore everyone in person and ignore everyone online twice as much when it comes to "what they reckon the wind is like somewhere"

And ignore the kiters 3 times cause theyre all fat old men


If you cant quite understand the data try cross refrenceing it with your local spot where you "know" the wind to give you a proper gauge.

Theres a airport right at diani beach so the data is accurate

I stayed for 3 or 4 weeks during covid there, used the 8m once, most other days on 11 or 15m. Nice beach though.
