Returning for more images from the CKA Springbreak Championship in Islamorada ...



Palms buffered by mangroves



Alligator Reef Light has marked the Florida Reef Tract for shipping since 1873. Been a way point for kite runs somewhat more recently.



Riding is still going well to windward to Teatable Key

Matt docks the Otherside pontoon boat so useful in placing race marks



Neil calls the troops in



Joe boosts, camera crew in tow



Alex launches yet another reverse jump across the kicker.



Jaime shreds by guys setting up a new long slider. Wonder what they're staring at?



All the comforts of home!



Aside from Jaime Field, this was the only other lady I saw on the water. How about working some women's comp's. into things?






Matt signals a right turn as his board heads that way












A view east over the northern part of the resort.

The wind has ebbed so time to hit the kicker. They guys get ready to tender a rider and line out to be pulled into the kicker by the Grinch



Nice rooster tail



Glorious starts ...



... some messy stops and no lids in sight. More to come on that
in Grinch kickoff photos in the next installment.



How will it go?
