How good is your local flat water spot? North in Sri Lanka

Flat water, new gear - what more could you want?
Wave junkies, look away because this body of water is seriously depressing. The North team have travelled to Sri Lanka to test the 2013 product range, and while they were over there (and with the help of the military), they stumbled across some of the most incredible flat water you'll ever see. 

They don't tell you the actual location of course, even though there's several different spots in the video, and more space than a thousand Safety Bays put together. All they say is that it's a long boat ride to get to, or short helicopter ride if you enlist the help of the Sri Lankan military. How they managed to commandeer a full on ex-wartime helicopter is beyond us, but nobody can argue with the result.

Aerial shots of an entire team riding in close quarters is always spectacular despite being done to death in kiteboarding videos of the past era. But throw in some brand new equipment, more rotations than a frog in a blender and the most incredible flat water location in the world... It makes for very decent viewing. And it's all in 1080p HD too of course, so hit full screen, sit back and check out the 2013 North kiteboarding range as they tour Sri Lanka.
