Photos Of Past Islamorada Invitationals
Several years of these events, wanted to throw up some photos from other years.
This time from 2004 ... http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/2004_2_DSCN0103.jpg Flat water out to the sand bar. http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/2004_3_DSCN2321.jpg Lots of gear in the prep area http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/brad.jpg Brad ski's out through the riders http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/2004_5_DSCN0015.jpg SS is in the house, looking good too! http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/2004_1_DSCN0076.jpg This looks like it has been put together through Photoshop, even to me. It wasn't though. http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/Alligator_Light.jpg http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/2004_6_DSCN0119.jpg Holiday Isle and the Monkey Bar provided a great venue and vantage point for a kiting event. http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/kent.jpg Kent, in a helmet, chucks one http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/2004_7_DSCN0116.jpg The crowd goes wild, really! http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/up.jpg I think this was the first South Florida comp in which kickers were used. The guys took to them in no time. You can see still more photos from the 2004 event at http://fksa.org/forumdisplay.php?f=58 http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/...4_DSCN0065.jpg Had the event one last time in 2005 but unfortunately the wind didn't cooperate. Things are laid on for 2009, been some strong fronts coming through too. Should be fun. |
so much fun, thanks Rick

Welcome! Here's some more. As good as 2004 was, 2003 was an outstanding event as well. Thrills chills and frozen drinks too.
A look at II03 ... http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/Launch.jpg http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/Rider_no_2.jpg http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/...g_the_bars.jpg http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/...seat.sized.jpg Kent grabs a seat http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/It_s_uh_yellow.jpg http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/...ce_s.sized.jpg Brad throws down a nice one http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/Gang_s_all_here.jpg http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/Kites.jpg Fabian in his banana yellow pants really stood out. Made for some good shots too. http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/..._III.sized.jpg Hamish was the first guy to use a kite leash that I saw for wake style tricks, here at II03. Way to go Hamish, thanks for leading the way! http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/Fabrice.jpg Riding outside of the box? http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/9_G.jpg A nasty squall line blew through at the leading edge of a cold front. No one was hurt this time but it did provide some drama. http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/Shredding.sized.jpg http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/Bar_side.jpg http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/...1237.sized.jpg Life on bar time, don't hit the boats! http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/All_out.jpg http://www.fksa.org/albums/album381/...ides.sized.jpg Andre Phillip rides in. More fun to come, soon! See more shots from the original posts from six years ago at: http://fksa.org/forumdisplay.php?f=58 |
