I saw a kiter lose his kite in a strong gust at Wello today. So a 'kind' windsurfer loaned him his board to paddle out to retrieve it, but wind was too strong. Never recovered it. Last seen heading towards Stradbroke Is.
You can see kiter heading towards the kite, but didn't make it. I think he would have had problems getting back against the wind anyway.
Then Jarreau voluntered his board to a kiter whose kite took off in a gust towards Stradbroke Is. Unfortunately the kite wasn't recovered but J got his board back.
You can see the kite in the distance and the kiter attempting to get closer to it, but wind just too strong.
