i got a whole lot of respect for the local windsurfers , Ive seen them take beatings that doesn't make me envious of their sport and not all of them rip even in great conditions but they do take bigger beatings than most kiters.
but... if your gonna claim of ripping it up windsurfing in a kitesurfing forum and try to back it up with pictures.. then least make sure those pics actually looks like ridding something thats heavy and you are ripping it up... otherwise... no respect from this little wabbit.
gspot..if your post was directed at me, no offense was meant, i can only speak from my experiences of kitesurfing some Geraldton spots which on each occasion left me disappointed with the waves.... but ill continue to go back to Geraldton because i am never dissapointed with
1. waters always warm , least to what I'm used too.
2. winds always there, which i cant speak for my location.
3. beats kitesurfing in Perth with lots more crowds and even less of a decent wave, though winters usually better
i got to ask though.. on separate occasions i have been to your shop for a look-c .. you have had an away for few days sign on the closed shop door.... secret wave spot perhaps thats a bit better than some of the easily spotted waves around town?
Gday flipper/windzone, wondered where you went. How long till windzone gets shutdown. Anyone wanna take a guess[}:)]
edit; leave post going. got to have something to do when there's no wind.
"This is all a bit of fun and people don't need to read if they don't want to."
Unfortunately there is a paradox in this sentence. You can't determine the tone or content of text unless you actually, uh READ it. I'm not really offended by anything, but this sentence needs to be picked to pieces like it truly deserves.
The thread started out really funny and I don't even know KOTP, but that photo with him flying a kite at 12 with a look of surprise on his face as the photo was taken is priceless. So, it started out great and we have had some Tourrettes like comebacks, but its all in fun. Some people just can't establish where the line is I guess....

^^^^^^here is the line,,,dont cross it
Well Guys, Gero is fun place if you dont have to live there, now when you come back home with tears in your eyes next season its maybe not just from the wind,salt and the sun.
Ha Ha the Radman, Someone put some Turkey in your water.
The poem needs some saucy hip hop tunes.
You really need to get Willow fixed up you don't want those puppies.
They got stuck the same day (well 5mins after) the KOTP Unhooked photo was taken. So that's been a while now...

He drops down and in on his back hand ,,,,,,,OR (Hes dragged on his back through the line up KITE MERE)....OR OK MAKES IT races the NEXT SECTION which is a WALLie section for a bit and flattens out a bit before racing off down the line up .......
point iM making is
...... well now (from this picture,) show us your round house, foward hand cut back to the lip,,,, before taking off on your back hand again TO the next section ????????????????????????????????? SORRY NON EVENT 90%OF RIDERS get dragged down the line up ...........either or riding on your backHhand and or forehand ........y get dragged down the line up......
WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET ..............
Hope new kites in the future will round up more into the wind with out constant drag and or more de power allowing a tad more freedom on da wave face ,to slaye and gouge the eyes out of da dragons. allowing you to go the oppisite way to your anchored power source.
BUT hey you be windsurfing
Ps Was that you rad man being ghosted throught the line up 5m in front of me and criss crossed with me out to sea and down wind of me ,no wonder you got on it ........... you of all people.

Aren't I a nice mate taking photos of everyone.
KOP you are a funny prick. You are welcome in the this forum.
Cant believe everyone takes you so serious!
Can we have a sticky thread exclusively for KOTP to go to town on, please?
Nobody can match him for dadaist poetry and picture creation/selection.
The Smithsonian should be archiving this stuff for sure.
Thanks KOTP, keep up the good work.
