Hey Guys,

I was on a SUP holiday in Fiji with family and caught this footage off Shangri-La Hotel. As you can see it's a top spot. I wonder if he is a Breezer.
I am sure it is not the most exciting footage but it is the first video I have edited with iMovie and uploaded on vimeo so it's all a bit new to me.
The bloody vid was pausing every 20 secs approx so not sure if it's my vid or connection. feedback appreciated.

hey why not . Fine for a first attempt nice tunes can just see a few time the camera "loading/saving " file I guess it is. Prolly try and stick with the subject a bit more seems most kite movies never really include the kite at all unless it happens to be in the shot.

what camera you useing

I always find a couple shots of vodka steady the hand tho it tends to go down hill after just another shot maybe one more!

Cheers GreenGriff,

I am using a 3 year old Sony HDD. I know the footage is ordinary - It was a spur of the moment decision to film as I was filming my kids at the beach and panned around to pick up the kiteboarder. I probably had a few Fiji Bitters under my belt at the time also. It was difficult to get the kite in the shot also as he was quite a distance away at times and needed to zoom in a bit.

Not the usual flat water kiter than, usually as soon as there is a crowd they turn it on pulling out all their showy flicky spinny tricks.

I seen him launch out front. Can only do it at full tide.

He didn't know I was filming him. I don't know the bloke. The surf looked ok from where I was standing But there are a few rocks which poke up which could end a good holiday.

Thanks for your feedback.
It was a one off vid as I'm into Sup but that kite boarding looks fun.
Might try it one day.
