| Articles > Things you should know about squalls | |
| Date: 30 May 2003 | |
by Rick Iossi (flkitesurfer@hotmail.com) The potential violent gusts and wind direction shifts in squalls can be highly hazardous to kiteboarders. Lots of stories out there about sessions in the School of Hard Knocks in minor to incredibly strong gusts and the sad consequences for the kiteboarder in the slot. Kiteboarding can be enjoyed in much better safety, with all the extreme moves, in stable weather. Going out in the unstable variety including squalls,is only asking for trouble. These stories are coming in from areas ALL OVER THE WORLD. Just be near hard objects (within hundreds of yds. or meters?), add some violent wind and be ready for some potential grim consequences. | |
