Log your sessions; that is how Windulu gets to know you.
The advice is a tool. You remain responsible for your own safety.
Enkhuizen offers flat IJsselmeer water beside the historic harbour town. Shallow and easy to read, with zoning in the winter half of the year.
Zoning: from October through March, kiting only in the designated zone (spot map of the NKV, the Dutch kitesurfing association).
The open water at Enkhuizen (IJsselmeer) faces ENE (60°). The safest wind directions to get on the water here are north, northeast and east (onshore or cross-onshore). With the wind from the southeast, south, west and northwest, it runs cross to cross-offshore: doable, but mind your position and don't go alone. With the wind from the southwest, it blows offshore and is dangerous: you'll be pushed off the beach onto open water (no-go).
