Just wanted to say I didn't hear you yell hi as we passed otherwise I'd have waived or responded - sorry I missed the greeting. I'll say hello today for sure.

Ps - you'll get used to the speed fairly quick, just tougher with the wind at an angle trying not to over run the kite or head toward the water. Looked like you were doing fine.

Thanks for the links... Pm'd lol

Oh dude if the onshore kicks in we can get some decent speed! A well placed turn and about face will avoid most bs in a hurry!

Cool vid :thumbup:

Thanks for the tips, mates! No worries on the "hi" Mark... too much wind in your ears (and bugs from smiling, is my guess).
