The weekend was fun as usual. Tom Pabst headed up from SC to visit again. We scored a bunch of great sessions. We did 2 south side downwinders from hatteras ferry docks to robin lane. The first down winder was fun playing in the waves. The second a couple days later was a little different story. It was messy waist to chest+ waves. I rode my 9m fuel with 27m lines cause I broke my 07 bar again. Ill tell you there is a huge difference when riding 27m and 23m liens in the surf. You have to wait all day for your kite to turn on the longer lines. None the less it was a fun and challenging experience. That was my second time strapless in waves that big. They were much messier than I’ve ever ridden. The rest of the sessions were either at the Chimi House or at Kite Point. Samantha’s friend is in town for a couple days to visit/vacation. We watched the fireworks at the avon pier along with everyone else in the OBX it seemed. Here are a few pics from the last week. The first pictures of me were taken by Lane duPont (lanedupont.com) who is a local and fellow kiter.
