More like an hour and a half.
Everything just clicked for me. Was hopping the board while moving to change direction when I got too far off my line. Managed to do quite a bit of upwinding but a boggy patch was stopping me from gaining much ground. Caught up with the kite a couple of times when I was turning toeside(back to the kite) will need to look into this. Managed a fair turn of speed and a few spectators. Luckily no one was around when I bailed. Caught a soggy puddle and lost my balance then yanked the kite to the other side of the window and got launched onto my back. Ouch.
All in all great fun. Looking forward to the next time. If the winds good on saturday I'm gonna try and get some video.
I've just gotten into this as well mate, no such thing as a quick blast lol
