- Good kite forecast: wind 5.2 m/s, gusts 6.0 m/s, no major model differences
- Light wind – experience required (5.2 m/s)
- Wave height – experience required (1.7 m)
- Caution – short wave period (6.1 s)
- Low water temp – risk of hypothermia (12.4°C)
- Wind too light – not suitable (3.7 m/s)
- Models wind forecasts diverge significantly (> 6.2 m/s) (ECMWF 8.0 m/s vs ICON EU 1.8 m/s)
- Wave height – experience required (1.8 m)
