NICE PICS!!
Dude, towards the end there was no way I was giving up my tack upwind......I would just point and shoot through em'
Very cool though, smiles from all of them.
It reminded me of sailing school.  _________________ Shallow Dive Design, 2nd Wind Sports, Airush, Trident Sports |

Had a couple close calls, passed between two (one upwind, one downwind) going opposite tacks, managed to keep my kite above the mast (just barely.)
The sailors were so mellow though, they just kinda watched us pass by... Wind power bros!  |

I pulled up behind one of the boats, and thought I recognized one of the sailors. I said hey, and he said "hey, just wanted to let you know we are about to have a race." I said "you do see the 100+ kites around me and the bouys they're riding around?"
We're racing too! |
