we were all (about 4-5 people) hanging on to 9m bow kites completely litt
awsome session, the 7m would have been litt as well, but doable if we were on 9m bows.... unless you only weigh 125 there was someone riding an 7,8, or 9m octane and doing fine....

They only make 8 Octanes of those sizes so it must have been an 8M...

It was Mike Hall on the Octane.
I was riding a 9m Fuel most of the day, but got off the water at about 12-12:30. |

Didn't get to spend much time on the Monkey's today. Smallest size was a 12M. Who knew these winds were going to be on like that ALL DAY!
After sitting around for awhile, got a fun chance to ride a 5M Waroo. That was interesting. We will shoot again for Sunday with the Monkey's. Glad to see everybody made it home safe. Considering the winds, no one got jacked.' Later, Steve-O |

Sat on my ass in the office and stared out the window at the trees trying not to break because they were getting blown around so much. 'Flew' a 1/3M Paper airplane into the dude in the adjacent cube to mine and went to a 'board' meeting. Waited at the salad 'bar' in 'line' for lunch while all you lucky bastards rode.

There was some heat out there today and I had to throw some of it! I too had some of the highest jumps of my life. I'm getting used to having some height -just need to learn to land it, since my back seemed to be absorbing more than is healthy. By the way, some of my biggest jumps of the day were on the Monkey kites before it BLEW UP. Everyone should try those kites. I would like to see what the low end of the 12m will be.
Sorry you couldn't make it Toby. |
