Went to Wood Neck at 9 this morning and kited until 4. Wind was up and down all day, but overall I had an excellent time. I landed two frontrolls in the morning, and did some big boosts in the afternoon. On my last tack of the day, I tried doing a triple or quadruple […]
Had a nice time tonight. Headed down to Woody Neck after work and kited for an hour and a half. There seemed to be a big wind shadow at Wood Neck, so rather than risk my kite falling out of the sky, I did a downwinder to Chappy and hitched a ride back to Wood […]
Picture perfect conditions at Wood Neck tonight. Totally powered on my 9m, and had a blast. I attempted several triple backrolls and came very close to landing most of them. One person on the beach said one of the attempts was at least 20′ in the air. Sweet. I also tried a variety of other […]
Underpowered at Black’s today, but it was just as well, because I only had an hour to kite before we went to Worcester for the weekend. Didn’t really do anything. Didn’t even stay upwind. Oh well. Should have brought my skimboard instead.
First time kiting since injuring my ankle two weeks ago. Took it easy, didn’t really do any big jumps or anything. My ankle is still sore, but is mending slowly; I made sure to wrap it very tightly with an Ace bandage before going out to ride.
Went to Wood Neck and had a really nice session. Mostly just cruised around, did a few jumps, and successfully landed a one-footer. Unfortunately, I sprained my ankle pretty bad on another one-footer attempt, so I’ll be sitting out for a while.
Also, this is the 52nd entry in the wind log, which means that I’ve […]
Had a nice session today at Chappy. Rode pretty easy because I didn’t want to hurt my knee. I was working on this move I came up with…small jump off a wave with a inverted tailgrab thing. Pretty fun. I did a slow backroll from that position, too. I could have done a 1-footer from […]
Pretty nukin today. I was tired from yesterday, so I just put on my 7 and cruised around on my big board. Did a lot of big floatie jumps, and otherwise just cruised around. A rain squall came through and cleaned up the waves really nicely. Wind started to suck after the rain squall, and […]
Wind was not as good as predicted today, but still kiteable. In fact, I kited for about 5 hours. I tried a lot of tricks today. I landed a nice slow double backroll, several unhooked backrolls, a couple hoochie glides, and one reaaaally big railey. My fin hit a spot on my foot, and now […]
Went to Chappy tonight. When you’ve had an awesome session, such as the one I had last night, the one after it is bound to suck. Wind wasn’t that bad tonight, and I did a few nice jumps and one really nice railey, but somehow I crashed my kite and it would not relaunch. I […]
