Just landed in Maui last night for out Liquid Force catalogue photo shoot.

Decided to head out to dinner at Jauques... Rocked up to find Bam Bam at the bar working it with the ladies as usual.

Had a good chat and just wanted to pass on that even though he is part of the Naish inside circle now on Maui, Bammer still says the NWkite community is the best group of kiters on the planet.

Tekko, I know this story well.... Ha, you just had to open the door... Well here we go. This is some footage of happenings while I was in Maui from April 13 - May 13 hanging with the Bammers. This guy never stops and is a rare bird for sure. The coolest guy in our industry IMHO.

BE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE DOWNLOAD!...

Then after a blow out on top of Heleakala with too much wind, Bammers and the guys hit a quickie morning sess from a secret spot. Cool stuff to witness for the first time.

Friday night at Jacques, what a scene!

NW kiting is an awesome community, but the Gorge mascot is missing. Hope Bammer comes home some day.

That looks like a nice PG launch in Maui! Where is that? I'll have to check it out when I go to visit some friends this fall.
