Just got a call from Rachel, and the story went live on Bright House Networks Channel 340.
Find Big Boys Toys, then Kiteboarding.
Some notes on the shot.
Don't normally teach on the beach, but due to scheduling we had a 2 hour window of time on a specific day. Tried to do the shoot in Ft. Desoto, but absolutely no wind. Had a hunch it was blowin up north. It paid off.
Big thanks to Craig Whiteleather for bringing out the big guns, Flysurfer 19M Speed 2, and making 10 knots look amazing. You really made it happen out there Craig!!!!!
Tried to get more shots of the bay area scene around St. Pete, but that was the week we had the low pressure system on top of us where it rained for a week strait. Bummer!!!!!!
We were body draggin in the water a bit, and Rachel totally lost her top....I guess that will be in the unedited version.
Enjoy. Nice to get some good press on the sport.
