Default Gulf DW report

I did a brief DW starting at 26th ave to around central yesterday. I saw some pretty disturbing riding practices.

Since the weather is still awesome there were a ton of people in the water and some surfers trying to cash in on the swell.

I witnessed 2 people riding right through where the surfers were surfing and way to close to people that were in the water. An orange cab and a medium blue SS RPM.

Another gentleman on a green cab was about 10 feet from shore and crashed his kite feet from the beach. I approached this guy and asked him to stay off the beach(in a nice way) and he actually said that he didn't think he was going to go back out because he wasn't comfortable in the condition. I commend this guys decision.

Just a reminder to everyone people that don't kiteboard are one of our biggest assets. Its their complaints and injuries that are likely to get action against us.

Keep it safe,

Danny
