Knowing how to Self Resuce saved my butt this weekend! Was about 500 yards off shore at the State Park here in PC. Hit the face of a swell and went for a jump. Jump was going well until I started to pull the kite down for the land, and had some awesome bar gear failure. Took my leash off and put it through the handle of my board and re-attached it to my CL. Then wrapped my lines around my bar. LOL Got to the kite and had a very long swim back in. I am just glad this is like the 3rd or 4th time I have had to self rescue so no biggie. If this was my first time, and I did not know how to self rescue it could have had a very bad ending. Took me about 30 mins to get back to the beach. Took a 10 minute break pulled out my spare bar and I was off riding again!!!!!!
