When you’re exploring far-off places, it helps to be ready for just about everything. On a recent sailing trip through a remote part of the Pacific, a crew from Patagonia made the most of the ever-changing conditions, scoring all-time kiting, fishing, surfing and diving—along with a few perfect barrels in some of the clearest water in the world. Featuring Kohl Christensen, Hank Gaskell, Jason Slezak, Reo Stevens and more.

Nice video! For once it wasn't a kite video showing 90% scenery.

sure great vid
but I had to shut it off when the guy complained about the wind being offshore
surely you'd just go to the other side of the island

haha - I'm pretty sure Jason Slezak (who was the guy) knows a thing or two about kiting and ideal conditions. At a guess I'd say there would be no swell on the other side...

When it gets too offshore all you seem to be able to do is crank upwind to stay on the wave face. TYou can not longer ride the wave effectively. There's this magical point of cross off when its just right. Getting on the wave is sweet and when you rip down the line you don't even need a kite that drifts well. The kite is in the perfect spot. You can use the bar like a throttle to dial in more ore less grunt for where you are on the wave. Its cool.
