I got a stoke of a different kind today but not from kite surfing in some sweet winds!
I am not iko qualified but have helped couple dudes out that wanted to get into the sport with gear selection and what not… as I wont teach on my gear (unless I sold it to them, to update my quiver), anyhow.. last dude was couple days ago and over two lessons on how to set up and all the rest of the gig, self rescue ectra. Normal IKO stuff... to being a safe and educated kiter, well today he dropped off a carton of crownies and a bottle of wild turkey

! But more to the point he left a letter (as I wasn’t home) how he was loving the sport and so forth... makes one feel pretty good when helped someone out, although I think the main point isn’t so much how I felt or how he felt but the fact... looking at that video with that dude that its a shame he wasn’t able to get the stoke as he might have if he sort some advice ,instead of getting draged down the beach like a fkentard!
