RIP Outings

Lake kiting for all UMD RSOP Kite Members
If the forecast calls for at least 10mph winds, it’s time to strap
your equipment to your feet and learn to glide along using the
kite’s power. Stay upwind by flying the kite with precision in
the power zones while carving. Try flying the kite in a pattern
that lifts you up in the air. Feel the rush of a downwind speed
run. At Island Lake a snowmobile will assist beginners that
need help getting back up wind. What a rush!
