It was sweet riding in the butter water getting worked on my back role kite loops. After giving myself two concussions i practiced my raley's. Thanks to the kind soul on an orange naish kite that gave me pointers. (i never did get your name) thanks. i have finally grown the nutz to try bigger tricks and it jsut proves i am still suck. i did see some sweet handle passes and more huge raleys form the others.
Great show

but i got smart and decided to take a break. glad i did becasue that was when the spike in wind hit i thought youd be crazy to kite in this then i saw one kiter bare foot skiing in the butter water i will have to say i was quite entertained. that was sick dude. then packed up and left. i will return tommorrow to lay down some more carnage.

I was on the orange naish kite and Man was the one doing handle passes.

Dude, you were throwing down like there were no consequences. I can't believe you were okay after some of those double backloop kiteloops. Pretty inspiring to see someone out there just going for it!
