Log your sessions; that is how Windulu gets to know you.
The advice is a tool. You remain responsible for your own safety.
Temporarily for experts only (dike reinforcement, getting in and out of the water is tricky). Source: NKV (Dutch kitesurfing association).
The open water at Edam (Galgenveld) faces E (90°). The safest wind directions to get on the water here are northeast, east and southeast (onshore or cross-onshore). With the wind from the north, south, southwest and northwest, it runs cross to cross-offshore: doable, but mind your position and don't go alone. With the wind from the west, it blows offshore and is dangerous: you'll be pushed off the beach onto open water (no-go).
