Hi Guys

Thought i'd say hi as I'm new to the Hartlepool area, originally from NW. I have a bit of experience but have been waiting a while for some decent wind! I'm thinking of going Majuba beach at Redcar on friday or possibly after work tomorrow, does anyone if there will be other kiters there if the conditions are right? Not too confident with self launch yet so help would be hugely appreciated!!!

Cheers
James

hey james,
welcome to the forum,

I live just outside hartlepool and I'm out pretty much every day theres wind, I normally kite at a place called the chem works which is just past seaton carew. but if the wind is westerly ill go to paddies at redcar.

friday is looking northerly so the chem works will be good. and a bit closer, rather than driving to redcar

also theres a few of us heading out tomora to the chem works if your free.

Hi Jamie

Thanks for the info, can be a pain to get to Redcar so the Chem Works will be useful. I will keep an eye on the forum tomorrow, dont have time off work so will be doubtful. Should be able to get friday off so will be down in the morning if the wind is decent.
