 Wed Jan 14, 15 11:56 am Chile kite adventure |
 |
|
Here’s some photos from an amazing kite trip to Chile last fall. Incredible blue water, cool cities (Valparaiso), super friendly people, side-trip into Patagonia, beautiful wind and waves. There were 15 kiters that I know of from HR, PDX, and the OR coast down there in November/December. Big thanks to Kirstan, Matt, Brad, Brian, and Scott for the great beta to help plan a perfect adventure. We kited 6 different spots on the Central Chile coast. Locals told us of even better places on both the north and south coasts.

| Switch stance, board leash, ear protection, straps, helmet, hand on wrong side of the bar, and eye protection: what a kook. |
