Phree,
Some versions of Vegas can flip that video over for you no problem. If you do not have Vegas or a way to invert the footage, let me know I can have you dump it on my server and I will rotate it for you.

got it flipped , tilt was kinda poor , but i'll salvage some clips and mix it with a recent session, HEAVY RAIN JUST pissed all over the SSW we had may kill it.

no shortage on the leg power. at 16yrs old could squat about 600# drug free(to torment of my roid friends) and 10years of speed skating all adds up to help me thru it all. at 44 the recovery is getting slower ...angelina prolly should bring a friendHAHAHAHAH!

out on the water kind a lose track of time. me and another kiter and windsurfer, ran out about a mile, where the real wind rolls! and session'd on these huge rollers.

actually rode the 136X42 custom for about 30min and fried my legs, the stiffness, the rocker really had me working it, DEF more pop! and then straps went sloppy , so i swapped out for the SK SPRINT 140x43softer/wider/flatter and tracked windward like a boss. the channel things just EATs the power(at my size anyway) like a jimmy lewis . amazing HOW different the subtle elements effect effortless tracking.

the soft, flex in the board is easy on the legs, I WILL MAKE A PLY DUPLICATE OF THIS BOARD with a carbon bottom. its the tool to have, the grip, the ease of travel(on the water) , go in ALL day COMFORT.

damn its dumping a ton now...radar watch

Heh former cyclist and runner here... I was the same way in HS, pissed all the football players off with my legstrength, specially being 6'3" @155lbs. They thought they coudl outlift me. Won more than my share of free pizza's that way ;-)

Yeah a board shape, flex, size can be huge. Same in Skiing. I got a pair of newer all mtn twin tips last year and now I can ski all day and not fry my legs and I ski better to boot!

Be safe out there!

no doubt on the x over sport , my balance is so much better actually more efficient . with good balance drag can change a fraction and you feel.

with less drag you ride all day!
