Well said, Kus. I posted on kite forum, asking people’s impression on riding a surfboard with 10m lines. Hoping that I stumble on to the golden ticket with my 10m razor and surfboard for getting access at smaller, less used beaches. Personally I am gonna give Cook st a miss for the next while, but o...

COVID - Should we be on the water?

I am thinking of going kiting, but also want to be socially responsible. I am also on the fence on the optics of being out there when many people are staying home. I think there is zero risk of me getting/giving COVID (or the flu/cold, etc) while out on the water, and keeping my distance on the beac...

Its either a super easy thing to do, or he is very skilled and makes it look easy. Either way, it's clear he is relaxed. And that kite is tiny, folded up you can almost put it in your wallet.

Boardriding Maui

Have you guys seen the new Model D from Boardriding Maui?

It seems like this kite is impossible to stall. Kinda reminds me of one of those 4 line precision kites people fly on clover point.

Lost Cabrinha Bar and Lines at IV

Hi all, I got to gordo's today, and inflated my kite, only to realize that my bar wasn't in the bag. I must have have left it at IV yesterday. Its a red and black Cabrinha bar with Recon system. This is quite a loss as they don't make those bars anymore... $50 dollar reward
