ok... Rob has a SW Florida connection. He actually went to Eckerd College in St. Pete... but all of the newby kiters there wouldn't probably know him. Fly the St. Pete flag high!

Default Le Figaro

Yesterday opening the news paper of this national daily had a big from page picture of the speed record, with a full page two article of the speed event.

http://www.lefigaro.fr/sport/2008/10...-des-nuds-.php

If you like you can read it in French.
The sport has come a long way, but never have I seen front page news of this caliber

Excellent !!

I don't think the sailing community is gonna take kitesurfers smashing speed records lying down.

I love how competition drives innovation.
