Just moved to Warsaw and I guess this lake is the nearest spot!
Any web sites where can I check the wind forecasts for this place?
Thanks buddy,
How about wind directions? Are they all rideable if not then which ones are better? as it is a lake and I don't know the terrain

If you ask about basic things like Any web sites where can I check the wind forecasts for this place it looks you are beginer (correct me if I am wrong)
I am not a kiter but widsurfer (more than 10 years on this lake) I can tell you Zegrze is a tricky spot and rather experienced people ride kites here and it happend a few years ago one experienced kiter died on spot (1)
Wind is very gusty (3-4Bf and 8Bf gust sometimes) and often change direction close to shore (reflects from trees) so it can be dangerous when you launch or land your kite.
The best spots are on Puck Bay (Chałupy) by Baltic Sea or Rewa, it is better to drive 4-5 hrs north and have fun than risk injuries and material damage on Zegrze. You can travel to Puck Bay with someone from Warsaw - observe or write in thread: Warszawa-Chałupy
Zegrze Lake - 110-130 liter board and 6,5-7,5 m2 windsurfing sail is enough to have fun and this is my recommendation...
