Geat winds, overpowered wrong size of kite
, one tack, thinking got to downsize 2m, one big jump for show off n brain high, over shoot then take control back of th ekite, land hard on chop,back leg and shooting pain., session over n can barely walk , Ladner hospital going for exrays , hope bones not cracked or ligament tores. Mmmm, maybe I really should take it easy n cruise waves of what's not instead then high quick rush high jumps and excitements...... I'm lucky I didn't brake the knees or bones badly! Good job Lucas catching lots of overpowered kites !

Lovely day. 2 1/2 hours on the water with 3.7 m^2 + 74 L TT board.

SW is on its way at FT but my wetsuit is wet and not sure that's fun. But at least the sun is coming out and end the day at FT with some sun and barbeque :-)

Epic day. Arrived at 3rd Ave before sunrise to pump my 7m in the dark then took a conference call in the car. On the water by 8am in gusty SSE 25-30 waves were only knee high at the boat launch.

Came off the water (9:30-10:00) for another call then returned to an epic SSE 28-30+ session on 7m+surfboard. Waves/ramps were steep (chest high) and kinda disorganized by there was plenty of widely spaced smoothies between - perfect for hero gybes.

Big ass ramps drained my energy so called it quits just before noon when the wind tanked.

Great 2.5 hrs TOW for a mid-week treat. More Friday?

Bones heal better than soft tissue. Good luck!
