WIND Returns to Florida! - Delray Sess.

When: Dawn – Wednesday, November 10, 2004

Dawn’s up and burning in, not the morning shown exactly. That one was a few days ago, I couldn’t resist using the shots. I had a powered (over-powered) session on an 11m at the break of dawn this day but as I was the photographer, no one took any pictures. It goes that way sometimes!

What: Wind & Wave Riding

We better move things up to lunch time as that is when I came back camera in hand to catch the action. A bunch of Delray locals were tearing it up, folks like Shannon Best, Andy Hurdman, Rick, Jay … The wind had eased off a bit since dawn but the guys were still moving out on 8 to 11 m kites.

Andy thumbs a ride, wonder why? He seems to be shredding along just fine.
