Hey if you live in the city, try NI (ex-Meigs Field), we went there
sat-sun for a couple of hours, today's W and later W-NW was great,
NI works with every wind direction except N, N-NW, and SW. Just make
sure you know what you're doing since the water is only 150 ft
downwind in all directions (it's an island). We'll try Wolf in the
next coming week ends.
Gus.
