LOOOOONG time between posts

So, yeah, i fell out of habit with my posts....

In August 2008, I took up the activity kite-surfing....a bit like wakeboarding behind a boat, but powered with a big kite that you harness yourself into. A bit unnerving at first, but exciting once you get going. I can actually do jumps now.....just not intentionally. If I over-steer the kite, I get yanked out of the water, smack face first into the water.

I kite-surf when I can on the weekends in Poole Harbor....a shallow body of water with good conditions for wind in the North/East/South directions, but very crowded on an ideal weekend day due to all the beginners also being there.

I'm still not great, but doing better. For more details, www.britishkitesurfingassociations.co.uk
