The most impressive thing I saw today was Tom Stock powered up and doing kiteloops on a 9 meter Waroo in 15 knots. Thats amazing since Tom is about the same weight as me and I was on a 13.
Maybe I will have to consider riding the Roo's.

Yeah thanks for the help with those mobes Josh & Alex. I appreciate it. Never got it but I am getting closer (and feeling every attempt right now actually).

Mad props to the bird who cut my 12m waroo bridle and survived!

Jay you can try the 9 waroo any time.. I think you might like it but if you find you don't you can just say so, it's all good. It's just a kite after all and I'd like to hear what ya think. Scott really likes his and I'd like to hear what some of the other experienced riders have to say too.

When I dove it through the power zone it would yank me 2ft out of the water in only 17knts. That kite builds apparent wind like crazy!

BTW did u guys see Billy hook in, run up the side of his motor home like spider man, prance around on top like a reindeer and then glide off?

WTF was that?! He's nuts!

Wish I'd caught that on video.
