check the data folks near perfect conditions.

4-6pm easy on, easy off, low tide late in the afternoon, crowd density tolerable without a 1/2 mile trek.

the ocean was swollen and choppy 4-6ft. providing on tap ramp work for snapshot grabs and lazy rolls on the ends.

still fully wicked out on the SK ExA 13m/140 Sprint. haven't touched the trim yet.

high speed trough runs into ample peaks yielded airs that just went on and "LOOKED frighteningly HIGH" that's what the lady said, FROM 1/2 mile out! indeed scared myself a few times.

working on 7days in row with the afternoon peaks.

low tides getting close to 6pm (go time for land ) i will be adding the CH15 back into the mix to get past the collapse thing(hopefully) with mixed ATB/water sessions.

the navigator bar has been pulling all the water time with hybrid c-kite minus the center line safety. bar has got about 250 hours on it and looks it . mainline performance has improved since beveling/chamfered the center hole.

BTW the bar end slide rings(oh chit pulls) work great to drop solo , LE slam down at the edge nearing 100% even in higher winds. not as violent as it sounds but it has hailed in ninja skills of last second release and pull . looks amazing , feels the same. ...and if it don't work perfectly it rolls over once and i cus. not quite as graceful but safe and effective .

and that's a MONDAY in the daily grind

We all should buy you a go pro cam so we can get in on the action......

Hurricane surf is showing up here, come and get some......little tough to setup a kite, water is all the way to the dunes........

NO GO ON GOPRO. the ocean has to eat enough i don't think we should add to it.

i would loose it . or most likely, it fails and now i would own some new cool techno garbage. very nice though. should i stumble into recycled, re-purposed, or moth balled gear suffering from updation type stuff, thats more me. i don't even use the stuff i have it just sits, cooking in the truck with the rest of the fun junk.

here you go , this is the first video i watched 3 winters ago ...love it all, music, flow and all the show. its the same as me. i wanted to become a rider. JUST LIKE THIS. AWARE of what i lacked, committed the CHANGE and my INTENT delivered. simple as that

What do you think his speed is, I know it 's forever changing but for the most part.

Looks like 20mph to me.

20 sounds good. +/- 5?

hard to say 15-18mph would be closer

Was wondering, with the boat runs as slow as I can get is 18- 20, and I thought it looked close to the same.

I know its going to be way different when I get a kite involved but maybe I can get a little used to the board this way. Sure can't hurt anything.

Maybe I can get a short video uploaded, dunno why just showing how the Proof rides behind the boat.
