Season 2008 has started!

Had a fun half hour session in the afternoon. The wind was violently strong from early morning, and remained pretty strong through the afternoon lull when i managed to get out. Although the wind had dropped off considerably from the morning, it was
plenty strong enough for a 12- which is my biggest kite anyway.

From First Kitesur...

Could probably have got away with the 9, but I have been disappointed a few too many times recently and wasn't in the mood for taking any chances.

All in all had a good session and managed a few easy moves. Am very aware of a whiplash injury from last year, and so will probably be a bit of a pussy until thats better.

From First Kitesur...

What i really need to do before getting back on the water is:

1. Strengthen neck, a lot


2. Strengthen back, a lot


3. Increase general flexibility, a lot

The wind here is so strong and consistent that injury is almost guaranteed unless you are in good physical shape, which I, for the time being, am not....
