Tide? What's a tide? Man, it's 1000 miles to any ocean.

You may want to shrink your sig a bit carl. It screws up the fourms formating.

I've landed a few on the water... all accidental. Well, except for getting my foot back in. It's usually accompanied with a loud "FFFFFffffffuuuuuuuuu..."



Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

trick is......practice on the ground, then practice hanging in your harness, then separately, practice bigger jumps with good hang time.....then the next thing you know, your linking them all together with ease, spinning your board around stepping through with your arm, even landing with your hand on the board STILL ONE FOOTED! ha ha not too hard if you co-ordinate all things,........
