Just wanted to give a quick THANK YOU! To the two kiters that helped me while I did a self rescue out at Fort Stevens yesterday.
I was doing ok, slooowly making my way back to shore after my main bladder lost air and in no immediate danger, but their moral support and grabbing my board when it got away from me made a HUGE difference. I felt that if the shit hit the fan they would have dragged me in or whatever. Just knowing other kiters have your back is a great feeling!
I didn't get their names but thanks again, we truly have a great kiting community here in the Northwest!

That was Barfly and Josh, owner of Cleanline Surf...
Solid 12M with all time waves and balmy temps. More on the way today!

Wow, I was in good company then for sure, thanks again, guys!
Yes, it was a beautiful day. I'm a big guy so I was a little under-powered on my 12m...then I was very under-powered when it fell out of the sky
Would have been no big deal really except for my fear of becoming fish food.
