Log your sessions; that is how Windulu gets to know you.
The advice is a tool. You remain responsible for your own safety.
At the Seebad of Neusiedl am See lies the northernmost of the four kite zones on the Neusiedler See, between ten yellow buoys and the jetty, and there you may kitesurf within 200 metres of the shore even from 10 May to 20 September. The shore faces south-south-west, so south to south-west is onshore and south-east and west come in side-on, while north to north-east is offshore and pushes you out onto the lake, and Windulu then gives a no-go. A north-westerly is side-off here, and according to the Hydrographischer Dienst Burgenland a strong north-westerly also pushes a lot of water to the southern part of the lake, so the gauges in the north drop. Tide plays no part, and kitesurfing is only allowed in daylight with good visibility. The GeoSphere station at Neusiedl am See is 2.6 kilometres away and reports every 10 minutes.
Kiting only in daylight and with good visibility. From 10 May to 20 September inclusive kiting within 200 m of the shore is prohibited, except in the kite zone between the yellow buoys and the jetty of the Seebad; swimming is prohibited in that zone. Outside that period it is allowed on the whole lake, but not through the reeds. Source: Land Burgenland, LGBl. 54/2009 as amended by LGBl. 35/2021; Schifffahrtsverordnung § 102.
The open water at Neusiedl am See (Seebad) faces SSW (203°). The safest wind directions to get on the water here are southeast, south, southwest and west (onshore or cross-onshore). With the wind from the east and northwest, it runs cross to cross-offshore: doable, but mind your position and don't go alone. With the wind from the north and northeast, it blows offshore and is dangerous: you'll be pushed off the beach onto open water (no-go).
