XWaters - RickI Blog Updates
XWaters is a large and diverse international Internet community of people into watersports. It deals with things like kiting, windsurfing, surfing, sailing, traveling and more. There is also information on destinations/beaches, sports shows, watersports businesses worldwide. I have a blog there largely devoted to kiting content with articles on SUP and other areas. They even have an association page devoted to the FKA. You can see a thumbnail sketch of articles there with links to to full content and images on XWaters in this thread.
Here's to great times on the water!!!

Here is the first article I blogged on the site:
It is about a dramatic standup paddle boarder rescue of two surfers washed over a mile offshore by tidal rips into the Red Triangle (sharky waters) in cold December conditions in Northern California. "Standup Paddleboarding To The Rescue Here is a case of a standup paddle surfer helping a pair of surfers.  Watermen help others within our abilities, it is what we do, regardless of what we're on out there." Continued at: http://xwaters.com/blogs/topic/stand...-surfers-saved .

The next was on the 2011 Surf Expo. This was the only write up that I did on this show. I took a close look at standup paddleboarding gear, some unusual water toys, great new innovations from GoPro with some interesting visuals.
 "Surf Expo is a large international water sports and apparel trade show held twice each year in Orlando, Florida in the USA. It provides an opportunity for manufacturers/distributers to connect with retailers and show off merchandise available for this year. " Continued at: http://xwaters.com/blogs/topic/2011-...rts-trade-show .

 Many kiters have a season, particularly in higher latitudes. The season is currently cranking up for folks in the northern hemisphere in lots of places. Been off the water for a while? Here are some suggestions for things to do before heading back out to hit it hard kiting for another season. Good winds! Check it out at: http://xwaters.com/blogs/topic/kites...season-is-back .
