Dude, I boosted like 60 feet in the air!!!

Well, maybe that is a bit of an exaggeration, it was more like 2-3 feet, but I did bust my jumping cherry yesterday!!! First (intentional) jump was real fun, I think I was maybe a little cautious with the kite because I was riding the 20.5 Machine and didn't want to kill myself on the first try! Forgot to bring the kite back tho and kind of paniced so I just plunked back into the water board first and kept trying...

Now I see why some guys bust out a 10 foot jump and come into the beach saying 'hey man, did you see that 30 foot boost!?!?!?', what a great feeling!!! Hopefully I can try some this afternoon when I am fresh and haven't been riding for a couple of hours already.

That 2 weeks off killed my body as far as endurance, I am sore as a bastard today but it hurts so good!!! 8)
