well i save that picture from when i started and then i did not know it was a bad thing to have the kite pick you up like that. now when i ride at the beach yesterday it suddenly goes from a lot of wind to a really big amount and i get picked up also which was supper scary!

good thing i was on a slinghsot c i could just crash without anything else scary to happen with me like on a foil or the bow kites!

i had some good body surfing but only down wind because it was too windy for staying in one place and surfers everywhere too. to jump was fun but the sand was hard on the feet when landing and maybe too gusty for doing land ski.

maybe we have more this weekend yeah!!! 8D

Thumbs down

What is it with everyone getting offended over silly stuff like bro rape and fake accents on this forum? What a bunch of whiners...that is the kind of nitpicking I can't stand when someone is just trying to have some fun.

The only thing that offends me is reckless kiters on the water. Focus your energy the right way, pick your battles wisely and stop acting like a bunch of kids guys. See you on the water!!!
