FIRST LOOK - II09 Saturday & Sunday

[ricki]

Heading back for a first look at Sunday. There are hundreds of shots of Saturday and Sunday still to be gone through, more to come on this. First starting out on the equipment. None of these folks are wearing helmets sad to say. Ken with Jimmy Lewis was, must want to stick around for that great kid of his. Something to think about, while you still can.



Understand this was Melissa's first time going off a kicker




Billy passes off the Egypt Pyramid or Temple of Doom, something like that, while Hunter rolls video of the action




Andy passes off the kicker as Damo rides back upwind




Jon ramps up as Mike watches




Billy slides as Jon works back. That is Holiday Isle in the back, actually a substantial distance away, no where near as close as it looks




The guys came up with the idea for a dead downwind race with some tacking points to round along the way starting at the sand bar. They're waiting for the start here.




They're off!


More on the way!

Big Ups to Brad for resurrecting the Islamorada Invitational.
It's a great event that attracts good vibes, top riders, and wind as usual.
JimmyLewis.com sponsored the first place prize for the Amateur Mens Freestyle event. Sean Reyngoudt stomped an incredible final heat to win a JL Model 3 board. (see attached photo)

Thanks to Seven Sports for allowing us to set up a demo station and for carrying the entire JL line of Kite and SUP Boards. We had a great time and will be back soon. I always forget how close Islamorada is to Miami.
