Thanks Jim for capturing just a glimpse of what goes on there, I just got back from my first time at those same beaches and I’m developing a plan to spend more time in the La Ventana or Los Barriles area. I can say I was like a kid in a candy store every day like clockwork. Nice to see some of the Stevenson crew as I miss that beach vibe.

Great video. January was such a great month. I was there 1/11 to 2/1 and only had one down day - and even that we kiters went out and played on my buddy's wing. Making me feel warm just thinking about it!

Good one Stringy!

Was there last week. Was expecting big crowds on the water like in some of your shots, but it was like "where is everybody, great white? jellyfish? CSO"? Shocked Laughing

My first dedicated wing trip, week started off perfect, then (as I was told) the first big El Norte rolled in on Thursday. Gusts to 40, big swell and chilly. Tide went minus, making launching and landing across the reef with a foil a complete biatch. Will remember shoes next time!

Jim, is that a stringy board you are on when winging? (looks blank carbon)

thanks for the kind words guys!
The kite foil board is one of my creations but the winging board is a stock KT drifter board.

mclovin let's make it happen soon!
