Log your sessions; that is how Windulu gets to know you.
The advice is a tool. You remain responsible for your own safety.
The Zandmotor near Ter Heijde is one of the busiest kite spots on the Zuid-Holland coast: an artificial peninsula of sand with waves on the North Sea on the outside and a shallow lagoon on the inside that can lie mirror-flat. That combination of waves and flat water makes it popular with both wave lovers and freestylers, and on a windy day it fills right up. It is narrow here, so rigging up when it is busy takes a bit of care.
The open water at Zandmotor (Ter Heijde) faces NW (305°). The safest wind directions to get on the water here are north, west and northwest (onshore or cross-onshore). With the wind from the northeast, east, south and southwest, it runs cross to cross-offshore: doable, but mind your position and don't go alone. With the wind from the southeast, it blows offshore and is dangerous: you'll be pushed off the beach onto open water (no-go).
