Looks like a few of us will be heading up for the event depending on the weather!

Going to the Homeland is always good!

kitestorm

I'll bee headed up with a group of us from the S NH area. If the surface area holds up like it is now, this could be the best event in years, pending the wind shows up of course.

YES! I'm going that weekend

YES! I'm going that weekend for a mix of either snowboarding if there's no wind or snowkiting if there is.

I'm booked at the Fairfield Inn Mariott with a friend of mine. Rates seem decent (abt $95/room/night and sleeps 4 ppl) when you split costs and looks nice and includes breakfast. It's halfway between the lakes and the mountains.

planning on going....best western

Here's what it says on the kite storm website for accommodations. "We are at the Best Western Windjammer Inn. Call them at: 802-863-1125."

I called, rate is about 75 to 85/night. I'm driving from nyc... If anyone needs a ride, let me know.

split rooms

I would be in for one day (depending on the weather for sure...), and or splitting a room as well, as long as the costs are reasonable... 80$/night is definitely way to expensive....

If crashing on a couch would be Ok for you, I would have probably a place to stay for us in Bulington...

what about the forecast and the snow situation?
If it's realy that much ice, it makes no sense for snowboard-kiting...
may be with ice skates Smile

Do it!

I am going. I will be driving up early Saturday morning from Watertown, Mass. and looking for a rider. The conditions might be really good. They are getting a foot of fresh today and NOAA is predicting sunny Northwest winds on Saturday.

white stuff

Yo Masskiters,
It's been snowing since 7 am up here. The rain is staying south of us. It's supposed to get heavy with some accompanying high winds this afternoon. Should be great tomorrow and if you can get up here today it should be awesome later this afternoon.
Bring some Masskiting stickers up!

Getting there with friends,

Getting there with friends, have plans skiing Smugglers Sat and kiting Sun or other way around depending on snow/wind conditions. You think on Sat it may be kind of stormy conditions with gusts >30mph?

Save your trip to Smuggs for sunday- the wind is currently looking bleek for Sunday.
Saturday, on the other hand, is looking dialed. Get here early to get some fresh

The wind was off the charts

The wind was off the charts this afternoon at Sandbar. Saw some of your beotches up here and they'll tell you it was nuts!

Current forecast for tomorrow is 10-15, Hopefully that will change for the better. They update overnight.
Best to get there early to stake out a place.
