Love my kitesurfing!
Yesterday and today surfed some awesome waves down south. wont disclose locations but ****ing unreal.
anyway the post says it all. nothing beats great waves stand up. hands down. kitesurfing is gresa for ****ty waves. or windy locations. surfing is all about the surrounds and the stoke!
cheers stoked hc

you have it right there,but if you are stuck in perth and only can get away sometimes kiting on a surfboard at trigg is fun.

Got that right, paddle surfing is great when it's clean, but 25kt onshore slop is a lot more fun with a kite and kiting opens up a whole world of waves that wouldn't otherwise get ridden

Talk about opening up a whole world of waves that don't normally get ridden. You need to check this out
