Default Thanks Craig! Runaway Kitemaster

Just want to publicly thank Craig for rescuing my Kite and another guys kite on Saturday at HI. My harness hook completely broke off. Long story short - runaway kite with a ripping current and wind. He kited over to it, was able to grab it, then proceeded to kite in with my kite in hand! All of this in deep water. Ironically, about and hour later - another guys kite got a way from him and flew all the way to Caladesi Island. Craig was able to kite all the way there in time before it completely went over the island, set his kite down, and packed it up for the guy. Luckily some jetskiers were able to bring it to shore after Craig packed it up. Craig is always looking out for the safety of others and willing to lend a hand. Really appreciate it Craig!

Tony

What goes around comes around Tony. You have rescued my kite at sunset at least once! Glad someone could return the favor when you needed it the most!

Hope you and your kite are ok!

And you saved my kite from the rocks at the Skyway about 6 months ago, Danny.
Thanks.
