The video is INCREDIBLE(as usual, George!)
How LUCKY are we all, to have guys like George ,Christoph, Neil, and Rick to dedicate their lives to what we all love.Those of you who didn't make it down there have missed a perfect moment in history, an epic day masterminded and DELIVERED,by these men and their crews. They have all given 110% and sacrificed valuable riding/personal time to create events such as this, for us ALL to enjoy. . I know that film and helicopter gas ain't cheap, neither is throwing a historic event,or editing footage and pix...We can show our appreciation by supporting their businesses to help counter thier huge costs. One easy way is to order a T-shirt or two from each one of them.(Rick- do you have shirts/stickers?)Or, how about book a trip with the X-Rated crew? Have George come out and film you for a day and make you a superstar! Buy a video, they are top notch(as you can see). Happy Kiting Everyone!

Yes, George and crew did an excellent job on this one. I really like those aerial views of board wakes and obliques over the flats and shoreline. The last time I remember seeing that was in some helicopter coverage of a HiHo windsurfing race in BVI in the 1990's.

George and Neil have a passion for the sport, that is obvious enough in what they do. Visiting their websites helps a bit. Checkout the vault of video clips at Kiteflix, Day One and the first Jupiter event coverage are among my favorites. Kiteflix has a nice DVD out on Dimitri that is worth picking up. There is a review about it at: http://fksa.org/viewtopic.php?t=1470 He is working on one for the Bimini crossing that will likely become a collectors item, it should be that good.

Neil puts on so many great events with more on the way too. We're meeting this week to kick around a new idea for the doldrums of summer, stay tuned for that one. Anyway as Stevil mentioned there are the trips, Neil has a store too with some neat stuff at: http://xratedkiteboarding.com/xstore.htm Just saying thanks to these guys helps too, as you just did. Enjoy this stuff guys, that is what they have worked hard to create this stuff for.

It is supposed to be 20 gusting to 30 kts. today, I gotta go! Have fun out there.
