Thumbs up Way to go BILLY PARKER!!!

We are lucky to have Billy Parker as a local kiter here and see him ride and progress everyday. He is finally getting some recognition around the globe for his mega-powered riding style and great attitude on the beach. He's probably helped every kiter in Tampa bay take their riding to the next level ,and saved more kites and arses than I can remember!

Check out whats going on in Pismo Beach- http://www.thekiteboarder.com/wordpress/?p=1611
Rock on BP!

Proud to know him.

I'm one of those arses. December 2005 First day I got up and rode, during a lesson at shell island, my instructor yelling stop, stop, stop, I'm thinking hell no I been trying to get up for a month now. Made it across the channel lost my board, standing there by myself fighting to hold a C kite the best I can, and this dude comes out of nowhere scoops up my board spins around and shoots upwind drops it so that it blows straight to me. I thank him later at the beach, to get a "no problem anytime, you looked good out there" and now I see the same guy making it at the top level. Just shows that good things happen to good people.
