Log your sessions; that is how Windulu gets to know you.
The advice is a tool. You remain responsible for your own safety.
According to the Norden tourist office, the water off Norddeich is a large flat-water area where you can stand for hundreds of metres, suitable for beginners and improvers alike. The permit zone lies west of the harbour, in front of a beach that faces west-north-west, so west and north-west are onshore and south-west comes in side-on, while an easterly blows offshore across the land. The regulation sets no tide window or start time here, unlike on the Nordstrand of Norderney across the mudflats. The live reading comes from that island, about ten kilometres away, so use it as a guide rather than a measurement on your stretch of beach.
Kiting and winging are only allowed in Erlaubniszone Norddeich west of the harbour, with no tide window. Source: NordSBefV.
The open water at Norddeich faces WNW (285°). The safest wind directions to get on the water here are southwest, west and northwest (onshore or cross-onshore). With the wind from the north, northeast, southeast and south, it runs cross to cross-offshore: doable, but mind your position and don't go alone. With the wind from the east, it blows offshore and is dangerous: you'll be pushed off the beach onto open water (no-go).
