I need to work on staying in the pocket, going more vertical as apposed to running down the line and missing the critical sections. A nice little head dip or closeout barrel would be pretty awesome too.


Close out barrel on a windsurfer! I'd pay to see that!

Where to start.....
Twin tip....big powered dark slide, and some board offs.
Surfboard....getting more vertical and a deliberate barrel (not just falling under a lip).
Mutant........ and do all of the above on 1 board.
Foil.......just try one out.
Phew! I am worn out just thinking about it all.....but that is what is fantastic about kiting....all of our options to refresh and renew our stoke........ Bring on Summer!!??

A smile and a wave from one would be my goal

Kiting! Haha... for windsurfing my goal is to take the gear out once or twice to clean off the dust. I'm not ready to let go...

Why do poleys hide behind their sails,
A clear porthole would allow eye contact,

Haha, the old J.O. wave. That's appropriate sometimes too, especially when getting short tacked by somebody.

I want to get that second bit of lift from the loop at the end.

Been a good couple of months.

Managed to nail a few new tricks off the bucket list.
How is everyone else going?

Plummet? Has CASA/ or the NZ equivalent called you yet?
