Default I almost died and Billy jumps the ...

Today was insane. 8:30am and cold. We start the dw from IR 26 th ave and it is awesome Cruise for several miles boosting huge then we make it to Redington Pier. 25 feet high 20+ feet across. I launch near the tip and cruise safely away downwind on an 8.5 meter. Not to be outdone Billy launches his 7 meter over the middle, between the 2 buildings, and riders away. Infkngsane! Yes... The redington pier has been cleared
10 min later I was hooked up on 6 crap trap bouys with 35 knots & 10 ft seas & 2 kites tied to me. Total near death. Then we nearly froze to death. Thanks Al for the rescue and for thumbing down the ride. 2 kites destroyed but the pier was jumped.
Crazy crazy day
