That look like a jumping fest/paradise. (perfect ramps, cant believe you guys are spending more time riding them as oppose to jumping them, to each their own I guess)

Doesnt seem sketchy at all.

Where are the agro surfers ??? None seen in this video.

I thought of something, and before giving you my results I contacted those guys in the link above (the world fastest speed record guys). It turned out that what I thou...

Kevin, the 3-4 times I went to Nitinaht this year there was plenty of W/S. I know that I am going to be in sh## for this comment but oh well, to each their opinion: 2002-2007, when learning kiteboarding with Jordon (BigFoot on BWD) and Allen, we always thought that there was an actual windsurfer / k...

Probably same type of person that doesn't have the "courtesy" to cut his tact short on its way to shore when seeing someone launching to let them get out of the beach... My last 2 times at Nitinaht I had kiter coming 1 or 2 meter with their kite beside mine just after launching, I was just...

Would not having a safety boat be bad for possible future ban if rescue is needed(Coast Guard)? Not saying if there is one rescue in 4 years, but let say these huge downwinder start to happen more often, averaging one or two rescue a year, any danger of putting a ban on kb/ws? Especially if rescue h...
